Headlight Lens

[ashneel]

hey guys

i have stress fractures on my headlights and everywhere iv been to so far wont pass the car because of them (major defect for having HIDs installed so all mechanics are concentrating on the whole headlight for RWC...). i have taken it to a polish place and they said it wont help if the polish it as you will still be able to see the cracks.

any idea where i can get a set from? not really looking at getting new headlights as i have the xenon headlights on my 34 and buying new ones are close to $1k.

or does anyone wanna swap headlights with me so i can roadworthy my car?

perhaps offer some sort of insentive, this way u might some interests lol (*cough cough $$*)

sorry mate only have an r33 over here

keep trying, i know of about 5 roadworthy joints who will check your entire car for safety items as per roadworthy norm, but as far as headlights are concerned, they will only check if they work lol

[ashneel]

oh ye i forgot to add there will be some sort of payment if a swap is arranged.

ye taking it to another place tomrrow. hopefully they ONLY check RWC items

i hope everything works out alright, such a pain in the ass! pisses you off when you a comodore with tape holding tape and missing bumpers drive past you and you have to deal with hair line cracks in the head lights yet the commo has no defects lol

have you already had the first check done and paper work filled out but the first rwc guy? if so be carefull, vic roads are known to want to have a look at cars that have a rwc check done through one place and then go to another and get a full rwc, also since the headlights were on the defect vic roads will look at those when you go to get the defect cleared.

yeh but the old ladies at vicroads wont know how bad they were when they were defected... so just lie and say they were all cracked and smashed, so you picked up these 2nd hand good conditions ones!

[ashneel]

first place only did a "check" and thats all. give me a list to fix before they do a full RWC.

but all good. have found one flaw with vic roads that may work in my favor which means they wont need to see the car

try r34 compliance shops, they usually have a "safe" pair they use for the compliance purposes on cars that come with xenons, they then swap em back on after the car is registered.
