headlight protectors

hi everybody!
i was wondering what exactly headlight protectors are, how they are used and what their part numbers are. i constantly have to clean dead and dried bugs and flies off my headlamps (and they don't come off that easily)

maybe protectors might be useful.
thanks in advance!

cheers

yo, headlight protectors are just transparent perspex covers, i havent seen them for the polo but you will still have to clean the bugs of them!!

i've got the same problem, im gonna try some Meguiars bug and insect remover!! i'll let u no if its n e good!

The part number is ZGB6Q0072100 and I paid about Â£26 for mine from a vw stealership.

alright thanks mate! seriously bird crap gets off more easily than bugs

jrw,
thanks a lot for the part number but i think it's only for UK (the part number has a GB in it). well thanks anyway, and if anyone else has a non-UK part number i'd appreciate it

cheers!

Logistix,

I tried to get these headlight protectors everywhere but they only seem to be available in the UK. There's not even a German part number for them, so I guess it's a UK-specific accessory.

no, i didn't see anything like that on the shelves. are they actually called "bug removers" or is it a nick for WD40?
