    Has anyone come across this on their spyder headlights? I bought these two years ago, now they’re on my buddies truck and starting to peel on the inside of the lens. Curious to know how everyone else’s have held up. I have a set of lights I’m retrofitting currently, might have to give him my spare lenses. Both sides have the same problem.

    Lost track after #1.
    I swore off the Spyder brand after having quality issues as well. Sorry that's happening.

    I traded him for his stock lights to retro so I’m not too worried! Just told him I’d put the feelers out to see who’s having issues.

    2018+ OEM Toyota Tundra LEDs. Great lights. Also a member here (@iHacker ) makes a very nice, high quality harness that makes them easy to install.

    Looks like UV damage and clear coat failure. Possibly could be wet sanded and polished then once looking good sprayed with a automotive 2k clear coat.

    Honestly, they’re cheap, the light output is mediocre, I cut my losses with mine and the new headlights are damn good.

    For a while I had profile LED projectors and then I got a 19’ and the oem LED are just as good as those.
