   My driver front light indicator has went a yellowy tinge/tint instead of being clear is there a way to sort it or can you buy just that littl cover or is it a full new head light?
   
   Cheers!

   yellow tint spray is the easiest. You can get a film that goes over the glass but its pretty hard to fit.

   i think he means its tinted itself yellow...
   has the bulb shorted or anything since youve had it? id say its either the insode of the glasss is dirty, or somethings happened to the reflecting bit, id wait till some of the more experienced guys answer though

   Is it the blastic lense cover for the indicator bulb? I've seen that on a few, it might be that its discoloured over time or someone said the older mk2s come like that, the lense does pop out so if you could smash a light in the scrappy you could get it out or buy some from someone on here, they just clip in and out mate but the glass needs to be removed.
