I just finished mine and sealed it with the included wipe. But want to know how long will this shiny new restored headlight last?

it will last like a month, I think it will need to be sand deeper to get last more time

I had the same problem. I noticed a small drip stain on the LED cover. Cleaned it with a little Windex on a rag. Now works perfectly.

If you mean like the actual headlight, I have had them on for a while with no issues. They're good in that sense. There is no water build up inside of them. If you're asking if the headlight is sealed to the car, then no its not.

I had the headlight delay, the issue is with the lights themselves, not the anti flicker. JW has fixed the issue on lights produced after Dec 2014 and will replace them under warranty if you have the delay.

You'll still want to do the whole headlight for uniformity. Obviously, you'll want to pay more attention to the more damaged areas. I would highly recommend watching the Youtube videos for the product, so that you don't panic once you start using it. Initially, it makes the headlights look worse. Be aware, it is quite labor intensive, and takes about an hour if you do it correctly. I would highly recommend a corded drill, as I burned through 2 cordless batteries while doing this. I wish I could include my photos with this response. If you follow the instructions, you will be very happy with the results. You'll still want to do the whole headlight for uniformity.

Mine has lasted 2 years now. When you installed it you did not touch the lamp at all with your fingers and transfer anything to the lamp face? That maybe could create a hot spot and it burned out? Sometimes there is just a defect. When I first installed it I must have jarred the optical block so I had a rose tint across the top of the screen about 3 inches down. After a while you learn to ignore it, but I noticed recently that the line is gone. I moved the set a bit recently to get at a side connector and I am wondering whether that jarred something back in place. Now I won't move the set at all until the bulb dies again or something else goes south.

I put mine on with 3m double sided tape. Took the original off, cleaned the site real well with 90% isopropyl alcohol, dried it and let it air dry, applied the tape when it was warm and it held up just fine in wet, cold, and hot weather. Also looks awesome. Got many questions regarding who makes the car, what kind of car it is.....

The protectant is a milky fluid that you apply on after the polishing. It is meant to flow into microcracks. So far it has been 3 months and my headlight still looks like new.

Call your local auto part store and get the headlight number,if your oem light is h6024 you are good.also this headlights run a lot hotter and brighter than normal oem lights.make sure your wires are ok/decent otherwise you won't see much of a difference(lights will be dim) also spect a low life spam. from what I heard and experience in older cars they will last you about 6 to 8 months before they burn out

Make sure when installing bulbs, it is important NOT to touch the bulb! Oil from your finger will burn on bulb and make it fail prematurely. Also make sure there is no moisture in head light assembly, it will get on bulb and make it blow out and moisture will start making rust. Also, you must use electric grease on electric headlight connector for good contact and to prevent corrosion so headlight connector will not melt the ground terminal from a poor connection. Following those precautions, the bulbs should last a few years! I have had them for a while and am very happy with them! Good Luck.

I really don't know what you are talking about but those LED headlights and I purchase only lasted me 3 months in my 1994 Honda Civic are one of the LEDs on the low beam burnt out if you weren't able to look at the light bulb you'll see that the yellow LED part is kind of lipid kind of melted a little bit and Matt is the leb it burnt out the high beam works because it doesnt its not used all the time so I don't know what else you need on any of that but those are not very good headlight is burnt out I'm going to try another set from Amazon from a different manufacturer on better coming from China or Hong Kong or China and I'll see if they're better than the ones I had purchased hopefully they are if not on Amazon is selling stuff is not very good just to make a profit and that's not good at people find out its a good for Amazon they need to start selling better quality items and have a make sure that the manufactures give a better warranty

I didn't know such a thing existed. I have no idea what the answer to your question is, but it would seem that if lens sealer could be applied to a standard headlight, I would think it could be applied to this one. I figured I got 95,000 miles off the first set of lights, and I plan on selling my car before I hit 190,000...so I don't think sealer is necessary in my climate. Good luck!

It lasted somewhere around 9 months or less. I didn't notice how bad it was until I was approached by people in the parking lot of a department store trying to get me to hire them to clean my headlights.

Well on my civic and bimmer it's lasted easily over 6 months and the clarity it still awesome. Even if it was an annual thing you did I'm sure your lights would look close to factory. Adding a clear coat will extend the yellowing / haze caused by UV. The system is well worth under 20 bucks. Id say aim for once every year and just keep your eye on it. Some material could react slightly different than others.

Mine were also quite yellowed. After masking off around the light it took me about 1 hour both both headlights. I completed each step on each light before moving to the next step

It took many hours to install. Doing a clean job of wiring it into the reverse lights, running the wiring from the rear bumper, under the vehicle, into the cabin and behind the dash is just a chore any way you slice it. I spent about 5 hrs total doing the work. It is not a job I'd want to do again so I put extra effort into it. I am happy with the end result though. Had it a year now and no problems with water fogging the camera or anything. Clear coat has peeled from the frame though so it does not look as pretty as originally received. Finish has not corroded yet though without the clear coated spots. It took many hours to install.
