LED has departed from service

Can someone recommend someone to repair it to perfection?

I’m gonna take it out this weekend and get it sent off.

Many thx

What car ? Headlights are a tricky one, not seen an effective repeatable solution and if you get it wrong it’s £1,500+ for a new one.

There are used ones on eBay but they don’t come up in working condition very often.

Repair involves stripping down - being heated in an oven, taking out the electrics, checking over, identifying cause of the issue, repair (if possible) and re-assembly.

Might be worth checking whether the chap on eBay can do it. He does rear lights (look for Aston Martin light repair or something like that).

Ive had the sidelight led's repaired in one of my headlight units on my V8V by IER. Very good service with no problems.
