I tried one of the kits from Auto Zone or Advance -- might have been 3M, not
sure, but it was a name brand -- with limited success. My lenses were not
terribly yellowed but were hazy, dull and had really diminished output.
The kit had polish, super-fine sandpaper and a clear coat. The kit improved
the lenses by maybe 50 percent but not enough to really improve the output
from the lamps.
I ended up replacing the lens assemblies. I've heard of some who had good
results and more who ended up with new lenses.

Subject: DML: Hazy headlights...
Hey! The headlights on our Jeep GC are getting really
crappy looking. They're not yellowed,but they are hazy
with fine scratches. I have been doing some research
online to see what I could find out about hazy
headlights,and apparently there are "repair kits"
available. These consist of some kind of polish and
sanding "agents" (not government officials,but
materials used in the sanding process.) My questions
are extensive,but I only need two answered:
1.) Do these kits restore headlights back to excellent
shape?
2.) Does anyone have experience with a certain type or
brand?
Thanks!
