not worth it in my opinion, what are you protecting your headlights from? if you bump /crash it both the headlight protectors and the headlights will probably break anyway, and it would have to be one hell of a stonechip to crack a headlight, not worth it really if they do break just buy another headlight from a scrapyard for less than what you would pay for the protectors.

Got my pair from eBay for about £3, but I was just lucky some guy was selling his old ones. Just keep checking back and eventually you might strike lucky.

Yeah that's the same with me China, and loose stones on the road, but ah well if I can't get any cheap enough.
Cheers everyone.
