Recommended Posts

Hi every one. I want to change the orange reflector strip in my headlight. My car is white and it looks like nothing with the orange one's in, i know it's a scary job but i have already opened my headlights so the worst is over, well that is i have to seal them again, the only problem is i can't find any were to buy the replacement clear strips. Does any one no where to get them??

 

Cheers!!

It's a lot of money but I'm definitely not putting the orange one's back in. Did you have any problems resealing your headlights? Thanks for the help every one!! :thumbs:

should be possible with the making up of a mount, the american lights come with a light holder simalir to the indicator bulbs but no such item for the uk/jap lights

They are about £25 a pair, but to be honest unless you know what you are doing I would leave cracking the headlights open to the experts. I think you may find that Husky may be able to help you there.
