the headlights on my v70 are poor, even with up rated bulbs in, I believe the reflective stuff (professional term) has burnt off, so I think I could try replacement headlights, or would love to know where to get up graded sets from :) cheers

I had this headlight issue with my c70 I bought in Feb
First time driving In the dark was 3am returning from fishing and I had to drive at 30mph with main beam on and still couldn't see
Fixed this the next day by removing light lenses and sticking strips of mirror chrome vinyl to the rear of reflectors
It has worked a treat and I have now seen the light lol
Chrome vinyl readily available on eBay and is a cheap temp fix
Hope this helps

Doesn't it get burnt up by the heat of the bulbs? If not its a great fix :D

That chrome wrap is heat resistant so seems the solution......

Hi, I purchased two new lenses off ebay for €39.00 a pair and they have greatly improved the lights.
