Krister Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) Take them apart and use some scratch remover inside and buff it on the outside with an orbital buffer or by hand = brand new. I just did this, I can post before / after shot if you like. EDIT: nevermind, the above link has lots of before/after pics.. Mines just like it.

Multics Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Most of the yellowing is on the outside. Get some Meguiars ScratchX and give them a good rub, they'll come up clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwayne Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 i read somewhere that after t-cutting or whatever else you use, CD cleaning fluid works well to get them even brighter. i havent tried it myself as my car has glass now but i'll give it a go on the lucida when its on the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOGIE Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 so am i right in thinking that uk glass headlights WILL fit into my pre-facelift 95 import? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz1 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 so am i right in thinking that uk glass headlights WILL fit into my pre-facelift 95 import? yes they will, you may need to trim the lugs on the bulb holders though, 2 minutes with a stanley knife will sort it easy;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
