RAC Headlamp/Headlight Beam Deflectors, Beambenders & Convertors & European Motoring leaflet for Continental and UK Driving - Suitable for all vehicles

Good instructions, worked perfectly.One thing users of the previous version should watch out for.The previous version had adhesive only round its edge.This version has a central region of paper with a sticky back which you should remove before applying the deflector to the headlamp.I didn't remove it. Having assumed it would work like last year's model, I failed to read the instructions carefully enough.The good news is that the adhesive can be readily removed from the headlamp using methylated spirits.It held completely firmly while we were away for a couple of weeks, but peeled off (with not too much difficulty) on return.Then a firm swab with meths left the headlamp "glass" looking like new.I'll use the same again next time I take my car to the continent.

I originally bought these as backup to a different set of deflectors I've already reviewed. But those were so bad that I ended up using these almost immediately. They're really good ! Fitting instructions a bit fiddly - hence 4* and not 5* - but the lenses themselves are so well-marked for RH drive cars to use in Europe...and LH drive cars to use in the UK...that once you've figured out where on your headlight they should go, it's impossible to fit them 'wrong way round'.The deflectors are thickish, but of a very soft plastic that fitted without problems to my Hyundai Tucson. Strongly self-adhesive and first impressions are they should stay stuck. Dipped beams are deflected extremely well and there seems zero loss of light in the process. Make European night-time driving as straightforward as it'll get. As/when these get scorched/scuffed/too old, I'd definitely make them first-choice replacements.

These stick really well to the lights however unsticking them from the packaging is quite a business, I lost the sticky tape to one of retaining packaging bits, however after mashing it back to the deflector and attaching it to light made it held rock solid, no probs. I felt that instructions were cryptic/incomplete in places. Other than that, good product, nobody flashed at me in Europe like they did with other deflectors.

These fell down when we were driving and you have no idea how difficult is to find a pair of these in the continent! The pack was passed, glue was not sticking and the sticker included was a GB, meaning it was probably an outdated pack. We had to re-order from another brand via Amazon and send it to the continent, which is not easy due to Brexit, it requires customs clearance and full identification, even for a sticker, yes. It was really stressing, we had to leave the car parked until we got the replacement. It is not that you do not see if you do not have them but you could kill someone driving on the opposite side by flashing them with your light. I am really disappointed. This could have ended very badly, you should not sell them.

Great item. Much better value for money than the high street!

I found it, on lone motorbike headlamp, ridiculously easy to put on. In all the rain it put up with, it stayed on the entire journey. It's still on, in fact, and there's the rub. You can certainly strip off the top plastic layer, it's the sticky lower layer that's the issue as other people have already pointed out. In desperation, I stuck the outer layer back on - and it's still there - until I have worked out how I want to get rid of it.So, on the plus side, easy peasy and like a limpet. If it's French controls you worry about, go with these.If you drive in the dark in Uk, may be worth thinking how to get them back off before you buy.December 2013. Meths. Took a fair amount and some rubbing but came off without damage or residue. Although the product served its purpose, I've decided I shan't now use the second one.

Good value, easy to use, straightforward instructions. Only negative was they were difficult to remove and left a sticky residue. I'd use again though.

The amount of your main beam that gets thrown over to the right hand side of the road is excellent. Although it was tricky to separate them from the card they were on keeping the glue on the deflectors, they were very easy to apply on my Toyota Rav 4 which has center dots on the headlights, but following the instructions closely, they show you how to cover headlights where there aren't any dots.After 3 months in portugal, they still peeled off easily ready for me to put them back on next year.
