Headlight Restoration Auckland
Cloudy, yellow headlights are unsafe and unsightly. Our restoration brings them back to crystal clarity for brighter, safer night driving.
Over time, UV exposure causes plastic headlight lenses to oxidise, turning cloudy, hazy and yellow. This doesn't just make your car look tired — it significantly reduces light output, making night driving more dangerous and potentially affecting your WOF.
Our mobile headlight restoration service removes the oxidised layer and restores your lenses to a clear, like-new finish, then seals them with UV protection to keep them clear for longer. It's an affordable upgrade that improves both safety and appearance.
Headlight restoration starts from just $60. Request a free quote and we'll have your lights looking clear again.

Mask & Prep
Surrounding paint is masked to protect it during the restoration.
Wet Sand

Polish & Buff
The lens is polished and buffed back to a clear, smooth finish.
Seal & Protect
A UV sealant is applied to protect the lens and extend the results.
Why Headlights Go Cloudy
Modern headlight lenses are made from polycarbonate plastic with a protective coating. Years of sun exposure, heat and road grime break down that coating, allowing the plastic underneath to oxidise. The result is the cloudy, yellow, hazy look so common on older vehicles.
Beyond appearance, oxidised lenses scatter and block light, which can cut your effective night-time visibility significantly. Restoring them is one of the most cost-effective safety improvements you can make to an older car.
Restoration vs Replacement
Replacing headlight units is expensive — often hundreds of dollars per side, plus fitting. In the vast majority of cases, restoration achieves a clear, like-new result for a fraction of the cost, because the lens itself is fine; it's only the surface that has degraded.
Our process removes the damaged outer layer and reseals the lens, restoring clarity and protecting against future oxidation — all in around an hour, at your location.
