Clear Headlamp Protectors

I installed the clear headlamp protectors yesterday on my '03 MCS,but I have a few air bubbles.Will they eventually go away or do I have to do it all over again?

I've installed those protectors on several cars and the bubbles will disappear over time. Heat from the sun will accelerate it. It can take up to a month so be patient.

Yes, mine went away after a while, can't even tell they are on there.

i had very few bubbles, but they went away in a matter of days.

it's extremely helpful to keep a blow dryer on medium heat blowing on it while pushing the bubbles out.

I wish I had taken pictures when I was done applying them ... to compare to know. But I can send you pix of what they look like now....

BTW, I had air bubbles and moisture under the film, now they are perfect...
