Stylize and protect the headlights on your 2022+ Subaru WRX with our
Headlight Amber Delete with Eyelid in Medium Smoke Tint. This precision-cut
overlay conceals the factory amber reflector while extending across the upper portion of the
headlight to create a more aggressive, streamlined appearance.
In addition to changing the appearance of the headlight, the automotive-grade film adds a
protective barrier over the covered area against everyday exposure to UV rays, light surface
wear and environmental contaminants. This two-piece kit includes vehicle-specific overlays for
both the driver-side and passenger-side headlights.
Important Fitment Notice
This overlay fits only the 2022+ Subaru WRX Base and Premium trim levels.
It does not fit WRX Limited or GT models because those trims use a different
headlight design. Please confirm your vehicle’s trim level before ordering.

Watch the installation video before beginning. It demonstrates the recommended surface
preparation, positioning, squeegee and finishing techniques for this WRX headlight overlay.
Wet Installation Guide
Wet installation allows each overlay to be repositioned during alignment before it is fully
secured. This product requires patience and careful alignment due to the length of the eyelid
and the contours of the factory headlight.
Recommended Tools
-
Pro felt-edge or hard application squeegee
-
Premium Surface Lube or vinyl-safe slip solution
-
Vinyl-safe surface-preparation cleaner
-
Clay bar, if needed
-
Clean, lint-free microfiber towels
-
Heat gun or hair dryer
-
Precision blade only if minor trimming is required
Step 1: Prepare the Headlights
Thoroughly clean both headlights to remove dirt, road film, wax, ceramic products and other
contaminants. Use a clay bar when necessary, then complete the final cleaning step with a
vinyl-safe surface-preparation solution. The headlight lenses must be completely clean before
installation.
Step 2: Check the Installation Conditions
Work in a clean, shaded and temperature-controlled environment. Never apply the overlays in
direct sunlight or to hot, cold or wet headlights. For the best results, install between
65°F and 80°F. Installation may be possible between 50°F and 90°F, but
additional care may be required.
Step 3: Prepare the Slip Solution
Use Premium Surface Lube or another vinyl-safe slip solution. If a professional solution is
unavailable, mix approximately 16 ounces of clean water with one small drop of mild dish soap.
Apply only a very light mist to the adhesive side of the overlay—less solution is better.
Step 4: Identify and Position the Overlays
Identify the driver-side and passenger-side pieces before removing the backing. Lightly mist the
adhesive side of the film, then position the overlay over the amber reflector and upper portion
of the headlight. Carefully check the alignment along the headlight edges before securing the
film.
Step 5: Anchor and Squeegee the Film
Once aligned, anchor the overlay near the center and begin squeegeeing outward using controlled,
overlapping strokes. Push the slip solution and trapped air toward the nearest edge while
maintaining the overlay’s alignment.
Step 6: Conform the Eyelid
Work gradually across the upper headlight area. Apply gentle heat when necessary to soften the
film and help it conform to curves, bends and corners. Avoid overheating or overstretching the
material, which may affect fitment and appearance.
Step 7: Secure the Edges
Continue removing moisture and air until the entire overlay is seated. Carefully inspect and
press down every edge, particularly around narrow sections and curved areas. Apply light
finishing heat where needed to help secure the perimeter.
Step 8: Inspect and Allow to Cure
Inspect both overlays for trapped moisture, air pockets or unsecured edges. Allow the vehicle to
remain in a warm, dry environment while the remaining moisture evaporates. Avoid washing the
vehicle or exposing the overlays to unnecessary moisture for at least 24 hours.
Trimming & Installation Notice
Some overlays may include a small amount of additional material to make positioning easier.
Minor trimming may be required. Use extreme care around the factory headlights and surrounding
painted surfaces. Professional installation is recommended if you are uncomfortable using a
blade or heat source.
Installation Difficulty: 3/5
★★★☆☆
This installation requires a little extra time and patience. Take special care during
alignment and work gradually to help the film lay down correctly—take your time and
you’ll be fine.
