Black Depo Headlights Inside Peeling - Toyota Yaris Forums

ruimond · 12-10-2009, 10:46 AM

Well....kinda disappointed now...i know lots of people complain about the clear coat peeling, on the outside which i was expecting....but this isn't the case with mine. I've only had it for 2-3months, and its only just started into Summer now. The outside clear coat is still perfect.

The inside of the black housing has started to peel just infront of the bottom halo light, and its only been turned on and off very few times since i had it. Im sure it can't get that hot. It kinda sucks. I wasn't expecting quality from these obviously from other peoples comments but has anyone else experienced peeling on the inside of their black housing?

I know i can't really do much unless i wanted to open them up and re-paint it, otherwise i could attempt some retrofits on some stock oem ones.

Cheers

Peeling is near the hi beam lights, i originally was thinking it could be the light which caused it....but it can't be that case then.

Here's some shots:
