Are these plastic or metal? I know the webpage here says metal but it's rare that Amazon info is actually correct. What about the lenses, glass or plastic? Thanks.

The light housing is made of a metal casting and the lenses are hard plastic. I have two of these and they work very well. The sensor will trigger the light with motion or heat in the auto mode, so a nearby tree reacting to wind will turn the light on. They are pretty bright, casting a flood of light about one hundred feet.

They are metal and well built. I bought one to try and they worked really well and were well built. I have since bought more. They are also very bright and light up my driveway well.

Hi Leslie. It's not glass, but a very good kind of acrylic or plastic (very clear). The image quality is very good indeed. In my case 3X Magnification is perfect (I tried 2X and 5X and none were the right ones). Additionally the size of the lens is really good (not too big and not too small)The only thing I don't like much is the way it opens. But I can't say anything bad about the image quality. Hope this helps! If any other doubt, just ask :)

The lenses appear to be glass, the case is plastic.I will add that this has been a very worthwhile addition for night spotting out to 100 yards.

The lenses are high grade plastic/acrylic. They work wonders on making the car look good and of course the headlights are nice and bright. It was worth the effort. Followed a u-tube video on how to install.

Sorry, I am not exactly sure what the lens material is, but they are very crisp, clear and thin. They are not glass but I can't say for sure if they are poly?

The ones that came with my set were not plastic. I'm not sure of the metal makeup but I'm positive they were not plastic.

Hard Plastic. Probably what is often referred to as "nylon", although I'm no chemical engineer. These Pedco mounts hold pretty well, however. You could always put on a rubber washer, or just a piece of rubber gasket material with a hole punched in it it, however, for a bit more grip. I was surprised that some reviewers felt that they were not substantial enough to hold a DSLR with a heavy lens, as I've used them for that several times now without a problem. But when vibration or a catastrophic fall might be an issue, I've always used some kind of "safety strap" - or (once) just a length of cord - attached to the strap mount(s). At least, I've done that since one of my lens caps fell into a clutch of baby alligators. True story. I did not think that the lens cap was worth retrieving, as I did not know how far away - or not - "Mama Gator" might be at the time. Not for a lousy lens cap. anyway... Better safe than sorry, right?

I bought this accessory kit a few months ago when I first started off in photography.. I was looking for something inexpensive to go with my kit lenses that would boost what they could capture.. When they arrived, I connected them and found out that they were nothing more than pieces of glass.. There is no magnification or anything.. I'd recommend that you don't buy any of these.. Save your money and buy Nikon lenses.. I just bought a 50mm 1.8G from Best Buy for $199 and it is amazing.. I did tell the seller that they were nothing but glad and they refunded my purchase with no hesitation so I'm assuming they knew they were glass.. Hope this helps..

They are glass lens and metal frame, but be careful, once you scratch it, you'll have to get another one.

The glasses are plastic but very nice! I gave them as Christmas gifts to a couple of friends.

They are clearly plastic and not metal. The only thing "metal" about them is the color, so I guess that's what "metallized" means.

Unfortunately they're not magnetic :( I did not know that before ordering. Sadly, I haven't even used the lenses. I read other reviews to were they were glued on but that leaves me to wonder how on earth do they take them off? Hope this helps!

I have only received the plastic ones. I would return them if they were metal. I have purchased them twice from amazon and they are plastic
