Crystal clear headlight

Post by Mr Bognor »

I have the below to fit but this is just the head light with a rubber back .

Does it have all the clips inside the rubber on the back or do you need to chop this off your old light unit ???

These are the same one's I bought.

The retaining clip is universal, although slightly different in design it still works the same, the rubber bit I took off and swapped for the existing stock one's as they have the correct cut out and air pipe to stop the headlight fogging up. And yes the clip is underneath the rubber cover.

When will you be fitting them as I can take mine off later and post some pictures if you would like.

really easy, as Matt says swop over the rubber covers with the air vent on as its a better design from the OE lamps

no, the cap of the bulb itself does that job
