The Raven Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) Well it’s mot time again and my foggy headlights failed last time round. I’ve done my best to reseal them but I just don’t want the hassle anymore. where’s the cheapest place to grab some new facelifts?

m12aak Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 My TT6 came with new ones installed by Keron, the invoice he supplied with the car listed them as £740 for the pair (not sure if that's his current price though as this was nearly 2 years ago, but I would imagine they're pretty much the same cost).

Like goldfish style. I re split them and attempted to re seal them. But its becoming a issue when it fails MOTs due to it. I end up having to come home take them out hair dryer them. re install then take back to MOT. New ones may fog but i doubt to the point they would fail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Maybe try leaving a sachet of silica gel inside the light fitting after drying it out. Might not help, but it can't hurt to try. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just read through your old thread with @Nozdeveloping the headlight demist kit. Did you try one of these kits out of curiosity? BTW, I'm going to ceramic coat the inside of my lens before putting them back together just incase any condensation wants to build up on the glass.

Noz Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) Lad send me your lights. Let me have a go at sorting the seal. I'll fit some bulk heading fittings for a small air pump too. Long term solution and saves pennies. New lights can also fog up a bit. And prefacelift look nicer IMO The trial kit I made someone helped with the air pump.
