Cracked Headlight - 2007 C6

I had an appointment to install headlight film protectant on my headlights and fog lights but this happened:



Yep, three nasty little cracks! I never felt a thing. Happened during a 50-mile trip on I-75.

My question is, does anyone know how to fix these cracks, short of completely replacing the $1,200 headlight assembly?

Maybe something along the lines of the way windshield cracks and chips can be repaired? The headlight lens is plastic though, not glass.

Thanks. Ed

My guess is that it will need to be replaced. Cracks tend to get worse rather than better over time.

Seriously, GM didn't make that plastic cover a separately replaceable item? :crazy03:

Yea, i believe your SOL, and the least expensive way out of this is to try and find a rear ended C6 at a salvage yard or try ebay, they have some salvage replacements on there from time to time.

good luck.
