Here is the best picture which illustrates how the vinyl is starting to separate from the headlight (you can see three small bubbles spaced along the upper right hand side of the headlight in this picture). Do you think it is going to get worse? Is there something I can do to fix it?

Can't really tell, from the photo they look fine. I would keep using the vinyl cleaner / conditioner when you clear your car and you should be fine.

Yeah right now they are small, I'm just freaking out that they might start separating worse. Would heating/rewetting them help?

If I end up having to reapply a new set, I'm assuming I just heat them with a heat gun/hair dryer and slowly peel them off? In general how much adhesive is left on the plastic and how hard is it to get off? I have 3M adhesive remover I'm assuming that and Plexus are the way to go.

Hope these continue to last quite a while, I love the look and was happy to see photos of my car on your site!

I have had several sets on various vehicles for a number of years and they help up great. Scorching Texas heat, long road trips, and winter skiing in the mountains.

As for removal - From the FAQ on the site.

Quote:
Are they removable?
Yes they are fully removable but they can only be used once. Removal is straight forward. Start by warming the material a bit with a hairdryer and then pick at a corner with your fingers and then slowly peel off - making sure to hold onto the light firmly during the process.You may or may not have left over adhesive on the lens. Leftover adhesive can be rubbed off or carefully removed with an adhesive cleaner.
In practice I have seen some lights leave next to no adhesive on the light after removal, while other do leave some.

Thanks, good to know! Worst case scenario is they start to separate and I need to put on a new set . . . I plan on keeping this car forever so I can imagine I'll probably go through a few sets of these over the life of the car. I get nothing but compliments all the time about the look, it's very clean. So keep up the good work, there will be people like me needing to buy these again from in you 10-15 years!

Do Headlight Armor products come with any sort of warranty?

Do the covers have an adhesive backing to them like tape does? or are there just strips on 3M tape on the back?

The vinyl has a layer of adhesive on the back that allows you to stick it directly onto the lens.

Canada Post Strike

For our Canadian Customers, due to the postal strike in Canada we are not currently able to ship or mail anything into Canada. We had a couple of orders over the weekend going to Canada and they are currently on hold until the strike is over. Once the strike is over we will again be able to ship and mail to Canadian addresses.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

We do not offer a warranty as how they are installed and cared for is going to be a major factor on how long they last. The material has a normal life of 4-7 years depending on care and geographic location.

You know from looking at those I cant tell if there are three bubbles there or if you might have installed the film a little high over the edge of the light. If you can reach up there and feel the edge pulling back there is nothing you can do for them. If you dont then they are bubbles and all you need to do is take a little needle and pierce one side and push down from the other. Sometimes you will get air under the material and it will leave a bubble there. Easy fix if it is. If not it should not get any worse...

Do you sell in packages with different tint levels? I want to do all my lenses but want stealth smoke on some and lighter on others. I noticed you do the headlight and fogs in a package that comes out less than buying separately. Thanks!
