    Hi guys! I would like to ask if anyone here knows a shop who fabricates clear plastic for headlights? What I mean is, for old vehicles with headlights that are not "clear" type, is there a shop that fabricates or molds clear plastic?

    An example would be this:

    I would like to have the old type headlight to be a clear one. Is there any shop who does this here in Manila?

    Thanks in advance for any replies.

    might i point out that the old headlight lens might be made of glass... glass does not burn nor darken with age.. plastic does.

    Hindi pa ko nakakita or may narinig na nagfabricate ng headlight. Ang alam ko lang may mga aftermarket headlight na binebenta depende sa model. Kung common naman yang kotse mo most likely meron yan aftermarket headlight, like Depo brand. Yun nga lang, dont expect them na kasing ganda ng quality ng OEM. But it can serve its purpose naman. Anong model ba yang kotse mo sir?

    done this for the Trooper. Question nyan is the cost. If you will pay for the molding cost plus provide a spare headlights then that's possible. All the Troopers we did since 2009 are installed with this type of molded clear lens covers.
