For Sale T6.1 Factory LED Headlights

[Stuiemc]

Had some misfortune last weekend which resulted in cracking both headlights whilst using GTechniq W7 Glue and Tar remover. Apparently the acetone in the product reacts with the lens resulting in them cracking.

I needed to get the van back on the road ASAP due to having trips away planned so replaced both headlights. Meaning I have a set of broken headlights for sale.

Both headlights are fully functioning, no broken tabs etc it’s literally just the damage to lens. It may be possible to have the lens repaired or swap lens with a set of halogens which can be picked up relatively cheap.

Looking for £380 for the set. (+£1000 new per headlight from TPS)

It did unfortunately, was pretty vague said something like “not suitable for clear lenses” etc. I’ll hold my hands up but never in this world did I expect for them to shatter, pretty easy mistake to make. Guarantee I’m not the first and unfortunately won’t be last. I’ve used Tardis in the past with no issues.

I think the crazing goes all the way through but you could try a cutting compound

Yeah it’s completely cracked through, almost like it’s been hit with impact.

It’s proper gutting, I’ve used other brands such as Tardis with no issues. Crazy how they wont change the formula knowing the damage it can easily cause. Safe to say I’ll be staying away from all their products.

I've only used their C4 trim restorer which in fairness is pretty good stuff .
