Default Headlamps near Hampshire

Mine are very cloudy. I'd like to replace them.

2007 XC70. Not Xenons.

Anyone have some for sale near to Hampshire please?

You can go the cheaper route and buy an headlight refurbishment pack from your local car parts shop, it’s pretty simple to do mate

I have never done it but have known people that have done it with really good results and apparently it’s pretty straight forward

I did my headlights on a Audi and yes it took all day, but it did a good job for about £30. Someone did tell me they used the powdered smokers toothpaste and that did a good job too.....

I ended up paying local bodyshop £30 to do it. Very happy with results.
