Ok..do not use this goof off stuff..it just didn't look right when I tested it on one spot...since I'm at work(night shifts) I don't have everything that I need. I'll try again at home.

I went to a local AutoZone and they had some plastic/plexiglass cleaner that I asked the guy about. He said it worked really well, so I bought some of it (it was called like bluemagic and ran about $3.99). I would have to say I was pretty impressed on how clean it made my lenses. I recomend everyone getting some of it

I know a temp. solution - If u dont really have time - I was just changing the oil in my car, and I was replacing the oil filter. I rubbed the oil on to the filter seal, and screwed it in. I had some oil on my finger still, as i came from under the car, i accidently touched my left lens with my finger, and noticed the spot was really shiny. I rubbled it on with my fingers then a paper towel, It looked better then it looked before and lasted about 3 days.... I was impressed......

I think I am going to try motorcycle windshield cleaner. It is for plexiglass and and it has a polish too. I thought that maybe it would do a better job of filling up those small cracks in the plastic and make those 10 year old lights look brand new.

Walmart sells fiberglass restorer. It works best for me, a little on a rag and wipe. Wipe clean then a coat of car wax.

ok from now eveeryone that has their own techniques, tell how long it lasts. it would be quite tedious to do it every 3 days or somtin haha. ok thanks folkz.

Thats the same stuff I used, and it made my headlights look new again.

i think ill just invest in some new headlights. that should solve the problem.

If I recall correctly, one side costs close to $400 or so. :\

It would be cheaper to simply clean them.

celi85

$78 a side for me.

protegeDX

wtf, for $400 a side, those dam headlights better come with titanium housing, some glass instead of some plastic and a DVD player. shiiiieeeeettttttttt

SLPRprotege

I have seen them for $140.

celi85

damn, and i thought $78 was a high price for the plastic pieces of crap....

The two step motor cycle windshield polish/cleaner from JCWhitney worked great. The lights look brand new. I am going to give it a couple of days and then I am going to do them again. The kit that I used from JCWhitney was #AAE719663P. It has a polish/cleaner and a scratch remover. The kit is $12.95 and is well worth it.
First you wash your light housing using the polsih/cleaner bottle. It is a spray bottle. Then when it is cleaned, you put some of the scratch remover on a clean, lint free rag, and rub on in a circular motion. It goes on like car wax. Next, you let that dry to a foggy look, (like wax) and then you buff it out with a clean rag. Then spray the polish cleaner back on and wipe off and they look brand new. You can do this over as many times as you see fit. I hope you all get a chance to use this cause I think it is the best at getting those 10 year old lights looking new.
