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) :lol: maybe protectors might be useful.
thanks in advance!

cheers

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

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

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? :lol: :lol:
