Thinking of getting some headlamp covers, the one that have an "angry bird" look about them. Simply want them to hide the sun damage at the top of my headlamps, fed up of polishing this out.
If you have a set fitted am I correct in thinking they don't cause any issues at MOT time?
Just asking in case they need to be removed for the MOT.
Thanks
Mike

Have had no issues with mine fitted and I asked the bloke specifically if they would be an issue - he said as long as the beam isn't interrupted they will be fine (and he passed my Jimny back in March/April).

Thanks for another thumbs up Jackonlyjack.
The chameleon tint, did you do it yourself and is it the film tint you see on eBay?
Quite like the look.
