Title: Xenon Repairs...Possible?
Post by: AndrewWillis on September 06, 2014, 04:40:51 pm

I managed to pick up a set of half decent Xenon headlights, however one of the clear plastics has a small crack in it and both of the bevels are loose inside the headlight housings.  Is it possible to split the units down and clip it back in and replace the clear plastic, or is it better that I just buy new units?

Many thanks

Xenons have to be cut open. See the 'Joey mod' in the how to thread section.
