How much does it cost compared to replacing headlights?
New headlight assemblies can run up to $1,500 or more. Restoration costs a fraction of that. Every car is different, so we give a free quote by call or text. Tap Get Your Quote or call (858) 205-5261.
Why restore instead of replace?
Restoration gives cloudy lenses a useful second life, helps reduce unnecessary waste, and avoids replacing an entire headlight assembly when the lens can be renewed. It’s a practical, more environmentally friendly option—often for a fraction of replacement cost.
Why do headlights turn yellow and cloudy?
Headlights are polycarbonate with a factory UV coating. San Diego sun breaks that coating down over time, and the plastic oxidizes, turning yellow and hazy. That can cut your light output at night. Washing won’t fix it; the damaged layer has to be removed and resealed.
How does your mobile service work?
Call or text us, tell us where your car is, and we come to you. We inspect the lenses, restore clarity, and finish with protection so you can get back to your day without the shop-waiting routine.
Is it really same-day service?
Most restorations are completed in one visit, so you can drive away with clearer headlights the same day. Call or text for current availability and an appointment that works for you.
Where do you work?
We serve San Diego and North County, including Carlsbad, Oceanside, Encinitas, Vista, San Marcos, Escondido, Del Mar, Solana Beach, and Poway. Home driveway, work parking lot, or another convenient spot—if your car is parked safely, we’ll meet you there. Open 7 days, 7 AM–10 PM.
What products do you use?
We use professional-grade, USA-made restoration and protection products selected for optical clarity, durability, and a finish that looks right on your vehicle. That quality is why we’re confident backing our work with a 3-year warranty.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Every headlight restoration comes with a 3-year warranty on the work, and includes a UV protective coating.
Can I protect headlights that are still clear?
Yes. Our preventive UV protective coating is made for new or still-clear headlights, to help keep them that way.
Is restoration better than replacement?
For yellowing and haze, usually yes. Replacement only makes sense for cracked lenses, moisture inside the housing or broken internals.
Are you a detailer?
No. We specialize in headlight, taillight and emblem restoration plus UV protective coating.
