hello everyone. i just picked up a s2000 last week, it was a 2000 with only 19,000 miles with carfax and clean title. anyways i noticed that the headlight housing near the hid ballasts are bubbling. is this normal? is there a tsb or does warranty cover this? i know its nothing big but its bugging the heck out of me thanks guys

 

are you talking about the black plastic part under the projector lens?

 

my oo headlights do it too. there is no tsb and honda wouldnt do squat for me.

 

You can remove the inserts and pre/paint them. I have seen this one a number of headlights that I have cleared.

 

I was denied by my Honda dealer and HondaCare when I brought it to their attention. They claimed it wasn't affecting the operation of the light, so it was not covered. Fortunately that was over 2 years ago and it hasn't gotten any worse.

One of mine has small bubbles also. Wingman says it's fairly common. The heat from the bulb is a factor. Good reason to open them up refinish and clear the corners.

 

Mine's still under warranty (Have an '03) and has 3/4" long crescent-shaped bubbles on each headlight. They were pinhead size 6 months ago. Quite annoying. It should look like ass when the paint decides to flake off and bounce around the housing.

 

thanks for the input guys. anyones dash have bubbles? mine does

 

my headlight has a bubble but im replacing the housing.

no dash bubbles here.

 

i have thos bubbles too on driver side.
my friend w/ 03 had them too, but dealer replaced them w/ new 1. he was still under warranty. his id on s2ki is my_s2k
