Aftermarket headlights for Polo GTI?
colinharry - April 30th, 2013 at 06:46 PM

Hi all,

I have a 2006 Polo GTi and one headlight lens has gone all cloudy and needs to be replaced.

The VW originals are around $500 each, but I have seen non-original ones on Express Car Parts for $123.

Does any one know if these are any good?

I have also tried those lens cleaning products but with no success.

Thanks

Colin

Hi Colin,
The crew on VW Watercooled forum can definitely help you!

I believe they they have a clear coat on them and that goes cloudy. You can sand them back and put another clear coat on them if you know what you are doing. If you don't know, check a panel beater as we had both of our lights done (non VW) for $240.
