The leaflet i got as part of the fly eye pack said it can melt with hid, no harm in trying i guess

Measurement of the sheets you're considering to buy would help.
Not to mention you could measure your lights from it's widest points vertically and horizontally and see if a single sheet covered each light individually.. basic maths Rolling Eyes

On a side note way to dig up a 3 year old thread Laughing

Remember to allow for curvature on the lights so give yourself some play with each sheet when you do get round to fitting.

Honestly it's your car and you should do what you want to do and not worry about what everyone else does, it's nice to be different from the heard once in a while Thumb Up . Best of all though there a pretty cheap addition and can easily be removed if you change your mind later down the road.

Hey guys... I can't seem to apply the FlyEye to my rears... I've given as much play as possible but it still creases on the curve.. Has anyone actually managed to apply the FlyEye kit to rears? If so, I'd pay you to do mine!

Are you wetting the lights before you fit them to make it easier to manipulate on the lenses? Then use a hair dryer/heat gun to dry them up and get them to stick

I done mine. No creases are tears and didn't use water.

Just have to be patient and take your time
