Last Updated: 30 August 2026

Welcome to Car Lights UK. These Terms & Conditions govern your use of our website, https://carlights.uk/, and the purchase of products from us.

By accessing our website or placing an order, you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions. Please read them carefully before making a purchase.

1. About Us

Car Lights UK operates an online business supplying automotive lighting products, including replacement car headlights, headlamps, tail lights and rear lights.

Website: https://carlights.uk/
Business Name: Car Lights UK
Email: sales@carlights.uk

For legal purposes, the full legal business name and registered details should be displayed where applicable.

2. Products

We sell replacement automotive lighting products for a range of vehicle makes and models.

Product descriptions, images, specifications, dimensions and compatibility information are provided to help customers identify suitable products. However, vehicle specifications can vary according to model year, trim level, market, body style and original equipment configuration.

Customers are responsible for checking that a product is suitable for their vehicle before placing an order.

Where available, customers should compare the product description, vehicle information and original part number before purchasing.

If you are uncertain about compatibility, please contact us before ordering.

3. Product Images and Descriptions

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions and images are accurate and up to date.

Minor differences in packaging, labelling, colour, finish or product appearance may occur where the manufacturer makes changes.

Such minor differences do not necessarily indicate that the product is incorrect or defective.

4. Prices

All prices displayed on our website are stated in the applicable currency shown at the time of purchase.

Prices may change without prior notice. However, changes will not affect an order that we have already accepted and confirmed, except where an obvious pricing error has occurred.

Where applicable, VAT, delivery charges or other additional costs will be clearly displayed before you complete your purchase.

5. Ordering

When you place an order through our website, you are making an offer to purchase the selected products.

An order confirmation does not necessarily mean that your order has been accepted. We reserve the right to decline or cancel an order where necessary, including where:

  • The product is unavailable.
  • There is an obvious pricing or description error.
  • We cannot verify the order or payment.
  • We suspect fraudulent or unauthorised activity.
  • The product cannot reasonably be supplied.
  • There is an issue with the delivery address.

If we cancel an order after payment has been received, we will arrange a refund of the amount paid for the cancelled order.

6. Payment

Payment must be successfully completed before an order can be processed for dispatch.

We accept the payment methods displayed during checkout.

We do not consider an order fully paid until payment has been successfully received and verified.

We reserve the right to request additional information where necessary to verify a transaction and prevent fraudulent activity.

7. Order Processing and Dispatch

Once payment has been confirmed, orders are normally dispatched within 48 hours.

The 48-hour period refers to dispatch and does not necessarily represent the delivery time.

Orders may occasionally take longer to dispatch due to circumstances including stock availability, weekends, public holidays, carrier disruptions or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Where there is a significant delay, we will make reasonable efforts to notify the customer.

8. Delivery

Delivery times depend on the destination, delivery service selected and the carrier handling the shipment.

Once an order has been dispatched, the delivery period is primarily determined by the relevant courier or postal service.

Customers are responsible for providing an accurate and complete delivery address.

We are not responsible for delays resulting from incorrect or incomplete delivery information supplied by the customer.

If a parcel is returned because the delivery address was incorrect or the customer failed to accept delivery, additional delivery charges may apply before the order can be resent.

9. Delivery Inspection

Customers should inspect their order as soon as reasonably possible after delivery.

If the packaging appears damaged, customers should photograph the packaging and product before installation or use.

If an item arrives damaged, please contact us as soon as possible with:

  • Order number
  • Photographs of the damaged packaging
  • Photographs of the product
  • Description of the damage

This information may be required when dealing with the delivery carrier or assessing a replacement or refund.

10. Incorrect or Missing Items

If you receive an incorrect product or an item is missing from your order, please contact us as soon as possible.

We may request photographs, order information or other details to investigate the issue.

Where we determine that an incorrect item was supplied, we will work with you to arrange an appropriate remedy.

11. Returns and Cancellation Rights

If you are a consumer purchasing products online in the UK, you may have cancellation rights under applicable UK consumer law.

Subject to applicable legal exceptions, consumers generally have the right to cancel an online purchase within 14 days of receiving the goods, followed by a further period to return the goods.

Returned products should be unused and in suitable condition, with original packaging where reasonably possible.

This does not affect your statutory rights where a product is faulty, not as described or otherwise fails to meet the requirements of applicable consumer law.

12. Products That Have Been Installed

Customers should verify compatibility before installation.

We strongly recommend comparing the replacement light with the original unit before fitting it to the vehicle.

Products that have been installed, modified, wired, painted, damaged or otherwise altered may not be eligible for a change-of-mind return where the applicable law permits restrictions based on the condition of returned goods.

Nothing in these Terms & Conditions limits a consumer’s statutory rights regarding faulty or misdescribed products.

13. Return Shipping

For change-of-mind returns, return shipping arrangements and costs will depend on the applicable cancellation and consumer-law requirements.

Where an item is faulty, incorrect or not as described, we will assess the issue and provide an appropriate remedy in accordance with applicable law.

Customers should obtain proof of postage when returning an item.

14. Refunds

Where a refund is approved, we will normally refund the payment using the original payment method.

Refund processing times may depend on the payment provider or financial institution.

Where required by law, refunds will include applicable standard delivery charges.

We may make deductions where legally permitted, including where returned goods have been handled beyond what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.

15. Faulty Products

If a product develops a fault, please contact us with your order details and a description of the problem.

We may request photographs, videos or other information to help diagnose the issue.

Where a product is confirmed to be faulty, we will provide the appropriate remedy required by applicable consumer law.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include repair, replacement, price reduction or refund.

16. Vehicle Compatibility

Vehicle compatibility is the customer’s responsibility unless we have expressly confirmed compatibility based on the vehicle information supplied to us.

Before ordering, customers should check:

  • Vehicle make
  • Model
  • Model year
  • Body style
  • Left-hand or right-hand side
  • Headlight or tail-light position
  • Bulb or lighting configuration
  • Original part number, where applicable
  • Product specifications

If you require assistance, contact us before placing an order.

17. Professional Installation

Automotive lighting products should be installed correctly and, where appropriate, by a qualified automotive professional.

Car Lights UK is not responsible for damage caused by incorrect installation, improper wiring, modification, misuse or failure to follow applicable manufacturer or installation instructions.

Customers should ensure that replacement lighting is correctly fitted and adjusted before driving the vehicle.

18. Electrical and Installation Issues

Customers should ensure that the vehicle’s electrical system is suitable for the replacement product.

Issues caused by vehicle wiring, electrical faults, incompatible components, incorrect installation or modifications are not automatically considered product defects.

Where an electrical or installation problem occurs, customers should stop using the product and seek appropriate professional assistance.

19. Warranty

Where a product is supplied with a manufacturer’s or seller’s warranty, the applicable warranty terms will apply.

Warranty coverage does not normally extend to damage resulting from misuse, accidents, incorrect installation, modifications, negligence, water ingress caused by improper fitting, or other circumstances outside normal product use.

Nothing in this section limits any statutory rights available to consumers under UK law.

20. Trade and Business Customers

Businesses purchasing products for commercial purposes may have different contractual rights from consumers.

Where a customer is purchasing in the course of business, the relevant business-to-business terms may apply.

Business customers should contact us before ordering if they require specific trade terms, warranty conditions or delivery arrangements.
