How to repair the internal tab of a front headlight.

Model: Audi Audi Various
Part: Headlight

Video tutorial

In this video, we can see how it's possible to repair the sealing tab of a front headlight on an Audi. Replacing it costs 500 pounds (which is almost 600 euros), so it's worthwhile to try to repair it. There are various methods, such as two-component epoxy adhesives for plastics, which are very strong and can ensure a good seal, or a plastic welder with filler rods, as we see in the video, which is definitely a definitive solution.

A special soldering tool is used to melt the plastic of the tab and the headlight, fusing them together, often adding filler plastic of the same type to reinforce the joint; sometimes these kits include the insertion of metal staples that serve as additional reinforcement.
