I got them on Amazon, I'll have to see if it was direct or a reseller.

 

Just noticed this on mine today too. They don't even list an email for the N American market on the Depo site. I guess I'll try the Meguire's restore. Won't be buying anything Depo again though.

 

Like I said, that site is very unfriendly, which seems to be typical of Asian manufacturers (electronic component manufacturer sites are even worse).

If I have to do ongoing maintenance on these things with headlight restorer, I expect I'll get tired of it and either put nightshades on them or replace them with Fall Edition units.

 

are the falls as dark as the depos?

 

From your picture posted it appears that the headlight "shield" is a shaded coating, on the outside, that is peeling. Is that the situation? If so, I doubt if using any of the buffing type cleaners will renew the coating.

Really sounds, as you suggested, the need to remove the coating completely and then respray with a Nightshades type product.

 

Falls have the black housing and their lenses are tinted.

 

Ours are Fall Editions! The lense is Clear not Smoked and the housing is Black Chrome not Black like the Depot's, I'll see if I can find a photo to post .....

 

Here's a couple of photo's I found, not a close up of the Headlights but hopefully you get the idea .....

 

Those don't appear to be smoked, but everything I've read about the Fall Edition headlights says they are smoked. Did the Premier Edition use the same headlights?

 

Pretty sure from our research that all of the special edition HHR headlights had clear lenses and no amber turn signal lense .....

We also have a clear bra that protects the front hood, fenders, bumper, grill, head and fog lights so the lenses will never delaminate .....
