The miggy failed its mot today and all it failed on was the headlights everything else passed no probs so now need a new set of headlights

[Jimbob]

Bad luck

what was wrong with them?

not just aim?

[Miggy24]

yeh the backing of them have gone so when there on its just blu

[MutantCav]

The silver reflector stuff on the inside of the lights?? COuld just strip the light apart and replace that bit??

[Miggy24]

not sure as the lens has gone all milky colour

[MutantCav]

Oh right...that!! Just t cut the lens mate...keep working on it, a bit of elbow grease and it will come up like new eventually  

[Miggy24]

what about the mirror think in the back of the headlighthow do i sort that

[Lazydocker]

TBH I'd just sling a new set in... Perhaps upgrade to projectors :-? :-?

I'm sure you could get a pair from someone on here without breaking the bank

[MutantCav]

If its just the outside lens gone milky looking then you just need to t cut it...elbow grease and jobs a goodun!

I dont suppose the silver is flaking off the inside unless you have had them open before...if it is then you take the unit apart and swap the reflector part over for a replacement but doubt that will be unnecessary, just misunderstood the original problem  

[Miggy24]

ok mate nice one i`ll give that a go

[Miggy24]

here are some pic of the headlights

Silvering looks fine so dont touch that.

The lenses need a good rub down with fine wet and dry followed by T-cut or G3
