Hi All, I think the hot setup is to use a product that 3M has available. They offer a plastic sheet that has stickum on the back that you stick to your headlight. I have used it for a couple of years now and it has not yellowed or bothered the performance of the light as best as I can tell. It is available at Groits Garage , a catalog company in Tacoma WA. I think the phone number is 1-800-345-5789. You buy the plastic and cut it to fit your headlight size. They say a pellet will not chip your light if shot from 20 feet. I suppose it depends on the pellet gun though.:-) Todd Francis >
