Condoms for Headlights

["Mike Hopton" <mike@genesis-microchip.on.ca>]

     All this talk of repairing headlights, had me re-visiting an advert for a 
     product in Griot's catalogue. The product is a transparent film that you 
     cut to fit over headlights to protect against stone chips. Apparently the 
     film which is 40mils thick can withstand dumb-dumb bullets from a 44 magnum 
     (or was that blunt pellets from a BB gun?). 
     
     So.... now that I have two new euro lights on my '85 ur-q, can anyone 
     recommend this product? It's about $45 for a 20x16 inch sheet, this is 
     inline with other products sold by Griot's ($349 for two halogen lights on 
     a pole! - must have an Audi part number?). Anyone know of a cheaper source 
     (I'm up hear in Toronto)?
     
     Regards, Mike
     
     p.s. I do like the Ferrari tool kit advertised by Griot's, and it's only 
     $4,995....
