Need Help With Headlight

[Charles89]

Does anyone know a place in Melbourne that can fix my headlight?

My left headlight has a crack in rubber seal somewhere, everytime I wash my car, water gets into the headlight, then it eventually fogs up the WHOLE headlight....

So I need a place that can clean the inside of the lens and seal the headlight properly.

Thanks

Buy a 2nd hand headlight. Probably cheaper.

Or you could drill a hole in the bottom so the water drains out

I had the same issue with my R34 head lights. Was a real pain in the ass because they used to fog up all the time. I had to do some repairs on my head lights. They are made of 2 parts, the lense and backing with some clips and a shit load of black sticky crap holding them together. I heated it with a hair dryer and pulled them apart (with a lot of force) then cleaned and fixed them. I then re-filled the grove with silastic and resealed it. I also filled the outsides to make sure it was 100%. It's a bit of a job but you can do it.

You'll find on the base of the lights there are some breathers too, make sure the rubber guards are on as water can get in there.

Well, I was thinking about doing it myself, but I kinda don't want to be toying around with a headlight that's worth like $500

I found this place in Keysborough, Melbourne Headlight Exchange. They quoted me about 65-85 to open the headlight, polish it and seal it, does that sound ok?

Yeah that sounds fair considering the work to be done.

Do they do other cars for that price? Name and phone number please!

Pretty sure they do, as I found them through the Supra forum lol.

But they require you to take off your own headlights.

I've had them repaired cracked glass on R31 headlight's before. I don't think the car-type is relevant, they work on headlights, they keep stock of the more common models headlights but they can repair too....
