Blau Hella H1/H4 eurolight flaw

[Ken Keith]

Thanks Per,

Just to make it clear if it wasn't, I just received these headlights.  If 
they offer to swap out just the lens, I don't have a problem with 
that.  But as far as myself paying out of pocket to change the lens, 
that's not what I have in mind.

I'm thinking that I would like to exchange this light for another one 
that doesn't have the defect in it.  If this light is fine with the bubble, 
then it should be fine to exchange it with another, right?  If it's not 
returnable because it's not saleable, then...?

It was difficult to get into the shot, but if you saw these lights on 
the car, they would look like there was a chip in the passenger 
lens.  Or, even if you didn't think it was a chip, I know it's there, 
and there wasn't any chip or bubble in my credit card!  The more I 
think about tie bubble, the more it bothers me!

You mean you can't see the big bubble in the middle of this shot?:

The pic with my finger in it is one of the worst, as far as being able 
to see the defect clearly.  It is good to get an idea of the size.  I 
have decent sized hands :-P .

Still waiting to hear from Blau...

Thanks,

Ken
