Piece of cake to fit these - you'll have them on in less than 5 minutes! :)

You don't necessarily have to remove them but they will collect water droplets between cover and light as you rinse and wash and rinse the car again. You can pop them off and give them a quick once-over with a chamois or drying towel, or you can just leave them to go dry naturally!

I take them off everytime i wash the car. Its well easy because the the top of the covers is a screw fitting, but the two bottoms ones ust like pop in, pop out so their well easy to take off, them just clean them like yo'd wash the dishes haha!

Do they interfere with the washer jet system?

No because your washer jets will wash the covers which get dirty instead of the headlight lenses :wink:

Plastic covers in the shape of your headlamps that basically protect them from stonechips etc....a very good idea if you have a GTi and want to protect smashing them very expensive xenons! :wink:
