Consumer Description

THE HEADLIGHT LENSES HAVE NOT JUST OXIDIZED AS IS COMMON WITH VEHICLES THAT HAVE PLASTIC LENSES. THE MATERIAL ACTUALLY HAS HAIRLINE CRACKS RUNNING THROUGHOUT. THAT DEFECT, COUPLED WITH THE OXIDATION THAT NO AMOUNT OF POLISHING HAS BEEN ABLE TO REMEDY MAKES THE BRIGHTNESS OF EVEN THE BEST REPLACEMENT BULBS LESS SAFE FOR NIGHTTIME OPERATION. THE DEALER AND HYUNDAI USA BOTH REFUSED TO OFFER A REMEDY. *JS
