Hi there,
I have the common problem with the lenses for the dipped lighting, getting worse. Mine has H1 bulbs for this, so I upgraded to the Osram Nightbreakers. This improved things, but I'm not super impressed. Checked grounds and that seems good, so the only thing lingering in the back of my head is - What's up with this talk about the lenses getting faded/worse/less tranparent or whatever?
So my question is this: has anybody actually tried opening up a headlight unit, to figure out, if that damn lens is just dusty on one side? or is it actually plastic, that is yellowing, or is it glass? I would like to know more about the actual lens, because I don't like the fact that you have to replace the whole headlight-unit, if you could actually clean that lens...
Looking forward to hearing from you guys, if anybody has actually managed to disassemble the unit. And photos are welcome too
Best, Jesper
