In the old days, when your headlight burned out you just replaced the entire thing with a new glass bulb. Modern headlights are plastic assemblies, with a bulb inserted through the back. What this means, is that the plastic lens that light shines through never gets replaced, and eventually will begin to oxidize and deteriorate due to time, weather, and heat from your bulb. Today you will learn when it’s time to fix or replace your headlight assemblies, what options you have in doing so, and what the benefits are.

Customer Review

★★★★★

John and his group are a breath of fresh air in a business that often disappoints the customer! I am so impressed with the level of service and professionalism that I received from Reeves Auto Repair. Everything was done in a timely fashion and costs were clearly stated up front. The work I had done on my Avalon carried some risks. John made sure I understood the possible down sides to doing the work, so there were absolutely no surprises. This is the way business should be done!! I wish more people had this same mindset. Well done!
