    My 2024 360 Spider needs work on both headlights. I see that Sticky No More offers a headlight restoration service. Has anyone used them for their headlights? If so, were you happy with the results and the cost?

    Could you post some pictures? Most often the headlight level adjuster breaks allowing debris in. The only way to get it cleaned up 100% is the separate the lens from the headlight and replace the headlight level adjuster. I did a writeup with a lot of info a while back called 360 Headlight Rebuild. As of right now I'm not aware of anyone offering a specialized service for it.

    There isn’t any debris inside the lights. There are what appears to be scratches on the surface of the light cover. They haven’t been scratched, they just developed like crazed.

    Got it. Sometimes they get small internal spider cracks in the lens, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

    I am unsure if the lenses have a coating on them, as mine were scuffed to be tinted by the previous owner. If it is a coating, it probably needs to be taken down. If it isn't a coating, it still probably needs to be taken down. A GOOD detailer should be able to help a lot. Or at least make them a lot less noticeable without having to remove them. Probably worth a try.

    I know of a guy in the UK that is finishing up on getting replacement lenses manufactured for people to buy if for some reason those can't be saved.

    Apparently nobody here has used Sticky No More for headlight restoration and I can understand why. I filled out their request for a quote form several weeks ago and they have not responded. It's hard to have customers when you ignore them.

    I would honestly take yours to a GOOD detailer first and see what they can do before you pull them.

    Good advice. I've successfully polished out worse crazing on the headlights of my Renault Clio track car.

    I apoligize, but I do not have any request in my email from you about this. I just went back and double checked.

    These scratches should polish out. Headlight detailing and restoration for the plastic covers is a simple science and a good detailer should be able to make quick work of the surfaces for you.
