When I got my Disco, it came with those little round grey stick on discs, the previous owner had spent a few years going back and forth, and I can't peel them off my plastic headlights, any ideas?

Please don't suggest waiting for october 31st to get rid, I've heard enough brexit jokes already.

Why not wait till...... Oh.

WD40 or brake cleaner would be worth a try.

Advertise it on ebay.fr?

If they are glass lights try a heat gun/hair dryer

Have you tried white spirit?

White spirits

Wear gloves and don't get it on the paintwork. .

Glass lights?
Try acetone, but wash your hands well afterwards as it dries the skin something rotten.

DanClarke · Sep 21, 2019

Any reasonable solvent ought to at least soften them up.
Funnily enough I always find that if White Spirit and elbow-grease isn't enough, petrol on a rag does the trick with stuff that has stuck-on/left residue.
But before you go "ape" on it, try a test area first to make sure it doesn't have a serious side-effect.

Whatever solvent you try first (other than water) test on an edge first. I suspect some of them may damage or discolour the UV coating on the headlights

Well they're plastic lenses and am worried about scratching them but i just bought some WD40 having failed miserably to locate a can in the garage I know is around somewhere.
