Bring Clarity Back to Your Headlights
While your DRL unit is in for repair, take the opportunity to restore the exterior of your headlights to a like-new, crystal-clear finish. UV exposure and road grime often cause lens yellowing, hazing, or dullness — which can reduce light output and affect the overall look of your vehicle.

Multi-stage headlight polishing and UV removal
-
Resurfacing to remove oxidation, pitting, and haze

Application of a UV-resistant clear coat for long-term protection

Matched for both sides if sent in as a pair

Restores original factory clarity and appearance

Adds value and prolongs headlight lifespan

Disclaimer – Headlight & Tail Light Repairs
Please note: Headlights and tail lights are not designed by the manufacturer to be opened once assembled. While our team takes every possible precaution and uses specialist methods to carefully separate and reseal these units, there is always a risk of damage to the lens, housing, or clips during the process.
If a unit does break during disassembly, there may be no viable way to restore it to original condition. In such cases, we will advise you immediately, but we cannot accept liability for any damage that occurs as a result of necessary opening procedures.
Due to the additional time, skill, and equipment required, headlight repairs carry a higher minimum assessment fee to cover the work of our plastics specialist, including plastic welding, resealing, and reassembly.
By sending your headlight or tail light for repair, you acknowledge and accept these conditions.
