Default Headlight Protector

Does anyone have any experience with the above ?? It is some kind of clear 20-30 mil plastic sheet with an adhesive back to protect the headlights from rock chips. Kinda pricey ($40-50). I live in the countryside with 3 miles of dirt road. I want to keep my 08 Civic for a long time. Thanks for any info.

I really don't think it's necessary. Your headlights will be fine.

unless your speeding behind someone on a dirt road, i dont see how a rock would damage the headlight. Ive heard bad things about foglights though, those break easily

I wouldn't bother, because it would take alot to bust out headlights because they are so high up.
