Seen these on eBay and was wondering if anyone has bought them or can recommend a better alternative?

I have had those on my car for the last two and half years. Either I have dodged the stones or they work. Look smart , recommend.

Read up about Helicopter Tape and you'll realise there is more to it than you imagine.

I have yet to see any 'protectors' on the lights that don't immediately draw my gaze and make me think "ugly".

I find the extra thick tape (about 3mm ) that Paintshield used on my S2 spot/fog lights to be superior to the ugly plastic covers that are available. The clear, optical quality tape is almost invisible, has not yet been even slightly compromised/damaged. Most dont even know its there. Great bit of kit and fitted for free by paintshield when they did the front end of my car in their thinner but equally effective PPF (paint protection film).

I also broke a light with helicopter tape on it - at least the bits dont fall out! I have covers on the cab
