Arrow Pic request: Blob/Hawkeye Headlight Protectors

As title, any pics of blobeyes or hawkeyes fitted with clear headlight protectors

If you have them what do you think, easy to fit, practical or do they look pants?

I've got them on my Hawkeye. You don't notice them unless you know they are there to be honest. Easy to get on and off for cleaning days and it's the best 30 something pounds I've spent on my car, especially when you consider how much a replacement light is on a hawkeye.

No need to be sorry as you were just trying to be helpful

I was just wanting some better pics as the one on the dealer site isn`t upto much and I`m wanting something to protect the headlights, if the OE protectors didn`t do it for me looks wise I`d consider some of that Venturesheild stuff.

I think they look better on the Hawkeye than Blobeye.
Its all down to the fit tbh.
Blobeye looks very Halfords like but Hawk looks ok

Took them off for a change, might put them back on just to change look.
Do the same with the fog light covers from time to time.
Agree with detango, just need courage to do it.
Also car is still under extended warranty till next year so wouldn't want to give them any reason to say 'its not covered due to mods'
