How many lenses will the kit restore, and has anyone called for another kit using the Lifetime Warranty?

The kit has enough materials for 2 headlights though you might could stretch it to use on 2 cars if you are careful. I only did mine 2 weeks ago, so no warranty call.

I did both lamps with a little left over. Have not needed warranty yet but it's only been about 2 month since I restored them

Two Lenses - a little Clear coat left in my case, regret not using all. Just Ordered Warranty replacement, got in two days, so will go it again, lasted me about year and half before I contacted Sylvania. 'customer.service@sylvania.com'

I have a jaguar with four lights and it cleaned all four with a whole lot left over... With the sand paper cut it in half or in fours and it will still be enough

The kit will cover for both lenses, but it didnt work for me i had to actually buy new headlight assemblys; i will not purchase this kit again EVER!

No one has called and only one lens, I did not like how it looks, then do not apply to other lens.

It's intended for two lenses. Due to an auto accident, I had one new one, and one old one, so I only used it for one lens. There was more that enough left over for one more.

I purchased 2 kits and had enough materials to easily do all 3 vehicles; probably could have done a 4th.It has been about 18 months since I did the first, and it still looks great.The final step, the Clear Coat, will harden in the opened bottle over time.I suggest using up the entire kit within 2-4 months.

Good news, guys. I called Fujifilm and they're sending me a new lenscap. Turns out the girl I spoke to in the Parts Department had the same camera and knew of the problem firsthand. The camera is awesome, but I'd advise getting rechargeable batteries, because it drinks juice.

It was listed as used. Maybe it was a returned item. Looked new to me. I'm always questioning if used lenses are worth taking a chance, but I have found 2 times, it is worth it. Also consider how easy it is to return on Amazon if there is any reason it is not up to expectations.

Just lenses only. I just purchased them to replace damaged ones. LMC has whole kits I think.

Yes, this one is a new lens and the seller is very courteous and responsive. Regarding warranty, I thankfully haven't had a situation to get into those conversations.

I'm curious . Did you return or keep your lens and are you satisfied with it ? I'm looking to order one for my camera . Thanks .

One year warranty, we have had ours for four years and it is still working like new no problems at all. You do have to clean the dust off of the lenses once a year.

The lenses have a similar shape to Oakley Half-jacket lenses. I'm sure you could replace them that way, or if it is still under warranty you could try ordering some from the manufacturer.

I'm so Not happy with my kit, I could only get the lens to screw onto the adapter then you screw the adapter onto your camera there is only like two or three threads . Be very careful don't screw on too far you will jam the lens when a retracts back into the camera .. This can damage your camera permanently mine has gotten stuck three times. The UV lens works pretty good. Just a bad gamble to take in the event you damage are camera

I purchased the squaretrade warranty on a DSLR bundle which came with a kit lens and an additional zoom lens. I damaged the camera body as well as the Kit Lens and both items were fully covered.

Check out the problems that the 17 - 85 is having. It appears that after 5 years or so it needs major repairs. I have a 17 -85 and am facing $250.00 in repairs right now and my experience is not unusual. When I called the repair shop, they knew what the problem was as soon as I told them which lens I had.

Hardy,Thanks for the info about getting better lenses. I just "bit the bullet" and bought the 24-105mm L lens. I have heard this same wise advice from other photographers, and I am looking forward to getting sharper photos with the new lens, and I will try to get only L lenses from now on. In the end, you truly get what you pay for.

The lenses should be identical in quality and performance - if buying new, warranty may be an issue.

Nikon serviced/refurbished lenses come with a 90 day Nikon warranty . My lens is indistinguishable from new except for the fact that it came in a brown box with a white label stating it was a Nikon "refurbished "lens..

Well the Kit is out today at J&R;, Adorama, and B&H;, lets hope the body isn't far behind. Im not wasting 100 dollars on another kit lens.
