Clear Headlights Without a Shop Visit

Cloudy, yellowed headlights make an otherwise clean vehicle look older than it is. Dye It Rite provides mobile headlight restoration at dealerships and at vehicle owners' homes: our technicians remove the oxidation and restore the lens to clear, on site, with no parts to order. Restored lenses can help vehicles look and perform better at night, and the work fits into the same visit as interior, wheel or glass repair.

Most headlight lenses on modern vehicles are made of plastic. Over time, sun and weather break down the outer surface, and the lens turns yellow, hazy or chalky. Restoration works on that outer surface: the technician removes the oxidized, yellowed layer and brings the lens back to clear. Because it restores the existing lens, there is nothing to replace. Restoration does not fix moisture or haze inside the housing, a cracked lens or a failed bulb; those need a headlight repair or replacement.

For dealerships, headlights are part of front-line appearance. Yellowed lenses are one of the first things a shopper sees walking up to a vehicle, and restoring them is a lower-cost alternative to replacing headlight assemblies. Headlights are also easy to miss in reconditioning because the vehicle runs and drives fine, and adding them to a regular route keeps them from slipping through. For vehicle owners, restoration is a straightforward way to freshen the look of the car before a sale or trade-in, or simply for your own driving. We provide mobile headlight restoration in Philadelphia, Harrisburg and throughout our service area.

Why Dye It Rite

Why Dealerships and Drivers Choose Us for Headlight Restoration

Dye It Rite has been reconditioning vehicles since 1984, and headlight restoration is part of the same mobile service that more than 300 dealerships rely on. Here is how it works. Call 1-866-364-8748 or request service online and tell us how many vehicles need it. Dealerships can add headlights to a weekly or biweekly route, and vehicle owners book a one-time visit. A technician arrives in a fully equipped service vehicle, restores the lenses on site, and the vehicle stays where it is. For a dealership, that is one less item on the recon list. For a vehicle owner, it means clearer headlights without leaving home.

FAQ

Headlight Restoration FAQ

Answers for dealerships and vehicle owners about mobile headlight restoration.

It depends on the vehicle, the condition of the lenses and how many vehicles need the work, so we quote each job instead of publishing a price list. Call 1-866-364-8748 or request a quote online. Restoring a lens is a lower-cost alternative to replacing the headlight assembly, and dealerships on a scheduled route get a service plan built around their volume.

It is completed on site in a single visit, so the vehicle never has to be dropped off. The time depends on how oxidized the lenses are, and your technician can tell you what to expect once they see the vehicle. For dealerships, headlights can be done while the technician is already on site for other work.

Yes. Headlight restoration is fully mobile. We cover Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware and New Jersey within about 2 to 2.5 hours of our Harrisburg and Johnstown, PA hubs, including Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Lancaster, York, Allentown and Winchester, VA. The technician comes to the dealership lot or to your home, so there is no need to drive to a shop.

Yes. Philadelphia is part of our regular service area, and our mobile technicians serve dealerships and vehicle owners in the city and the surrounding area, at the dealership or at home. Our Philadelphia service area page lists the other mobile repairs available there.

Most headlight lenses are plastic. Sun exposure and weather gradually break down the outer surface, which turns it yellow, hazy or chalky. Vehicles parked outside every day, like dealership inventory, tend to show it sooner. Because that damage is on the outside of the lens, it can usually be restored rather than replaced.

Restoration treats the outside of the lens. Moisture or haze inside the housing, a cracked lens or a failed bulb needs a headlight repair or replacement instead, and our technician will point that out if they see it.

Yes. Technicians can restore headlights during the same visit as interior repair, wheel repair, windshield chip repair or paint and bumper work, so one appointment covers the cosmetic work the vehicle needs.

Yes. Dealerships can add headlight restoration to a weekly or biweekly route, so yellowed lenses are handled as part of normal reconditioning along with interior, wheel, glass and paint repair. Technicians can work through headlights on several vehicles in one visit, which suits trade-ins and older inventory.
