Default 3M Head Lite Saver From Clair Parts

Hello,

Has anybody tried the headlight savers from Clair? How are they? Any problems, worries? Are they worth the $33?

Thanks
Paul

Default Re: 3M Head Lite Saver From Griot

I used the griot (overpriced of course) ones, I beleive that 3m just makes the adhesive. These are a rubberized sheet. The 3m tape would work too, but not quiet as beefy (more of a thin vynil).

Default Considering I have a chip in my unprotected Euros - possibly

Working fine on my Porsche; installled two years ago, no yellowing or peeeling - and no headlight cracks.

Default Re: 3M Head Lite Scotchcal

You can buy the plastic material from 3M distributors directly. The cost is about $8 a SF which is considerably cheaper than $33. You just cut out the material to fit the headlite and apply you get left over material and can apply to the undersides of the door handles to prevent fingernail scratches. It is 3M Scotchcal, I think it is the 15 mil thickness for headlight application, and it is not difficult to apply.

Good Luck
