Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I've no experience of these repair companies, but would be interested to hear any experiences or alternatives.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi I believe the PDLS+ LED lights on my 991.2 have a coating or Veneer? There are a number of chips on them - and you can (from the top) feel a fine coating/cover/shell. I have XPLF PPF on my car, but opted not to get the headlights covered (stories about the PPF 'reacting' with these so called veneer's) I've been told that these Veneer's can be replaced ? I see there are direct replacements on the Tequipment website (LED Black PDLS+) 991 044 902 01 but at over 3K a tad expensive. Apologies if this has been discussed prior Regards D

POST 2Original post

Depending on the condition of your lenses then the 3 options are: 1. Polishing/refinishing 2. Lens replacement 3. Complete unit replacement. I've no experience of these repair companies, but would be interested to hear any experiences or alternatives. At around 1/4 of the cost to replace it seems more palatable. https://rennlens.com/lens-replacement-3/ Manufacturer's seem to have no interest in anything other than #3 and binning otherwise completely serviceable headlight units is inexcusable.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
