Sorry if this has been answered before but curious to know if you can strip the headlights right down to the plastic casing?
Found a company who still sell black masked headlights and other lights for the 206 but there only for lhd 206's

what do you mean by stripping them down to the casing mate? if you mean making the lefthand drive ones right hand drive can only be done by taking the fronts off and swapping the reflectors so would be cheaper to mask rhd ones.
i think i know the place you are on about was gonna get some for kates until i realised they were lhd lol still got a half stripped set im supposed to be making her but havnt had the time to do them lol

I did my headlights in Obsidian Black... look so much better than the regular gloss or satin black lights. But if you want to strip them down I'd highly advise getting your hands on a hobby tool i.e. dremel or the likes. Took me half hour to strip both the headlights and fog lights down.
