I am currently looking into getting a clearbra installed and I have a question if the clearbra is installed on the headlight housing. I talked to a certified 3M Clearbra installer in the Houston area and I know at least one other user on this forum that recommends him so I believe the installer has a good reputation. He does not recommend installing the clearbra on the headlight housing and his reasoning is that the film will prevent proper heat dissipation from the high heat of the xenon bulbs and as a result could cut the life of the bulbs down by 40%.

Does anyone that knows a lot about the clearbra think this is true? I would like to protect the plastic but may reconsider if it drastically cuts bulb life.

 

should be fine.

what about all those people with headlight overlays?

they all seem to be fine

essentially, it's the same stuff i believe.

 

yeap those are safe. but there are much safer headlight bulbs available nationwide that makes the clearbra standout at night while your driving.

 

The bulbs will be fine, the film might mess with the output of the light though (fuzzy cutoff).

 

Whoa... Revival from the depths...
