2006 Opel Astra head lamp clean

    Hey,

    The inside cover of my head lamps has condensation and dirt on the plastic which is effecting the lighting at night.

    I've looked up tutorials to clean it my self but I dont think I have the expertise to do so,particularly seeing as how opal make it difficult enough to get into the headlamps.

    Does anyone have a rough price of how much it is to get them cleaned before I bring it too a garage?

    Thanks

    Brings back the headlight lenses to clear, bright, almost new finish. Includes Both headlights and seals and protects the lenses that lasts a year.

    Car €40
    MPV €40

    but since you posted in DIY...



    Clean outside first, to make sure whatever is left is really on the inside.

    Small magnet wrapped in a soft cloth in through the bulb opening and use another wrapped magnet on the front lens to guide it around. Tie a string on the internal magnet to allow retrieval.

    Condensation inside usually indicate crack in glass/plastic
