Headlight crazing

[bmartinez028]

How many SEs here have crazing on the headlights? Just noticed it on our 22. I assume it’s from UV exposure as it sits outside in the sun for ~6 hrs Mon-Fri. It’s mainly at the top of the lens and not affecting headlight output. It looks like tiny random hairline cracks which are only visible with the led ring light on at night or during the day in the mid day sun.

Any tips for dealing with this? From searching the web, I see this is fairly common on MINIs. Going to cover them with PPF which I hope will keep it from spreading.

I’m using on my 2022 SE ceramic detailer to prevent headlights from cracking or put PPF to stop deteriorating more so far so good with mine

I don't see any crazing or other defects on my 4 ½ year old 2022. I'm sure it does not spend as much time in the sun as yours, however.
