Just the best you have Tim, as long as the water beads off the lens...apply a coat once a month and it will help stop contaminents building on the surface....

....I use Collinite Double Coat Wax laugh

Hi RICHB, do you have any more refurb headlights available?
Mine have had an unsuccessful attempt and I really want to clean up the car and I could do with seeing at night!
Hope you can help Stu.

Rich, this section is not the right one for putting up posts showing sets you have for sale.

Please use the market place in future for such posts.

If others members want a set then please post in Parts Wanted.

As these are refurbished do they have a new uv-proof covering or didn't the headlights ever come with it?

I don't think they did motocoupe, the headlights have a lacquer on them, this is what discolors and goes cloudy over time.

I remove this. Regular cleaning, and monthly waxing will keep them clean laugh

Just wanted to say thanks for a great service from RICHB.

I got a pair of colour coded Sprint blue lamps. They colour match the car perfectly, thought to be fair this doesn't show on this (Nexus4) photo

http://www.theplace.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/k3oup.jpg

Great service, very happy customer. smile
