Possibly try this company. They have 147 choices if you type headlamp protectors in the search box.

Headlamp protectors

I was concerned about the cost of headlight replacement on an A class motorhome, in the region of £1200 I think, so I bought some film which is designed to stop stones from damaging the headlight. As it is attached to the headlight by covering it with water and then smoothing it out to remove any air bubbles it is easy to apply, then cut off the excess with a Stanley knife. Can't be seen when finished and I haven't had a problem in 20,000 miles.

Can't remember the company I bought it from but try googling headlight film. Think it is used to protect headlights on race cars, etc.

Thanks Mike, you are quite correct, I think a visit to Specsavers might be necessary!.

Not wishing to put a damper on this product, and I am only guessing, but I would be surprised if a laminated film can offer very much protection to the headlight "glass" from stones and other missiles.

It is advertised as "Suppliers of motorsport light protection films and coloured halogen bulbs for headlights, spot lights and fog lamps.

Our products are used worldwide on race cars, rally cars, track cars, road cars, classic cars and motorcycles
."

Is the emphasis more on preventing bits of headlamp being scattered around the track, or holding together a broken "glass" so the light will still work (even in the rain maybe?) . . . . rather than protecting them from breaking?

As I say, I'm only guessing, but it would be a pity to spend your hard-earned and feel confident - if the protection was not as effective as you imagined.

Worth checking out?

Hi Dave,

The film itself is actually quite thick, can't remember the actual thickness but probably 3mm or thereabouts and it has certainly served me well over the last 3 years or so. Have had stones hit the front of the motorhome so presumably they will have struck the lights at some times and so far no damage whatever to the lights. For the comparatively small outlay it has given me piece of mind, just hope I am not tempting fate now.

Hi Javea

3mm is pretty substantial! Shocked

Good to get the benefit of your experience. Nothing more reassuring than a satisfied customer, eh! Wink Very Happy

Thanks
