I had a bit of a fright yesterday, as the angle I was looking at my Mk2 made it appear that one of my headlamp covers was cracked. Luckily it was a trick of the light, but it got me thinking. These are pretty expensive, I understand, so I am tempted to buy them some protection. Dealer Alternative ( http://www.dlralt.com/ ) does some nifty looking invisible ones in the '99 section, but they're quite pricey at 50 bucks a pair. Does anyone have any useful ideas for alternatives/DIY methods? I *don't* want those horrid thick perspex covers that you see around, but is it worth considering sticky-backed-plastic, or something similar? (11/99)

What does a MKII look like with the headlamp covers installed ? Good/bad the same, are they easy to fit ? (4/00)

Easy one this. In order... 1) Great. You'd never know they were on, apart from the clips under the lamps themselves. 2) Yes. Two minutes per side. (4/00)
