Headlight Protectors

does anybody out there know of any good headlight protectors for gc8s?

they sell the 3m film at subaruparts.com, but i was looking for the type that either pops right into place, or uses stock mounting bolts to put it on like this - headlight protector

if anybody knows where to get the protectors in the link above, post a link or information, thanks.

One thing about the bolt on ones is if you live where it snows they can be a pain. I had them on my Fog lamps, the OEM clip on type from OZ. The plastic is far enough away from the lens that no heat gets transfered. During a snow storm snow will just pile up on the lens and not melt away like it normally would. I have the Stongard now on both the headlamps and fogs and that works well. I've been in a few snow storms and since the material is on the lens it melts off and I can see at night which is a good thing.

Just a heads up.
