Anybody tried these headlight lenses?

Hi all,

Just wondered if anyone has replaced their headlight glass with these ones from China?

If so, how did it go? good quality etc?

Thanks
Mike

Hi I have done this in the past. they are pretty much the same plexi thingy you would get with the oem light unit - but they probably won't come UV treated( fade resistance).
Well at least the ones I bought back then had all the road legal E markings etc.. but I believe weren't UV treated had to spray on some UV protection coat on just for the peace of mind.
With these being shipped from China I would be more worried about them arriving scratched or damaged I would request packaging details from the seller before placing an order.

Thanks for the response.
Yep, I'd read about the UV protection so thats one thing to take into account.

Cheers

Get them clear coated or ceramic coated and you’ll be fine.

It's the UV coat that messes up in the first place hense rear lenses don't..
