Headlight Repair Bracket Kit For VW Golf MK4 1J 1997-2006 - Left & Right Set
Problem Solved
Broken headlight mounting tabs can allow the headlight assembly to move, sit out of alignment or become difficult to secure correctly. Replacing the complete headlight can be unnecessarily expensive when the lens and housing remain usable. This kit replaces the damaged factory mounting points on both headlight assemblies.
- Repairs damaged headlight mounting points.
- Helps restore secure headlight positioning.
- Avoids replacement of an otherwise serviceable factory headlight.
