pretty easy to install... found it easier to take the lights out to do it...
-
Really like how it looks :notworthy:
Are the head lights easy enough to get out?
Did you buy a kit? or?
-
bit of messing to get em out... kit needs to be unscrewed but nothing too hard... just wet sanded, polished and applied the fil :happy2:

My car, sorry it's not a golf but gives a good view with lamin-x headlight next to normal. Tint is light

Wet sanded? How comes?
Where did you get your kit from? Was it pre cut?
-
wet sanded the lights and then polished them as they needed a bit of love... then had a couple of sheets of laminx from ryan @ funkmotor sports there was enough to also do the fogs and wing mirror repeaters...

Make sure you have a hair dryer handy, to make the film easy to shape :happy2:
