My headlights have a yellow haze to them, big surprise for a 13 year old truck, but I've got a set of hid's coming and I want to clean them up before I get them inside. ANyone used anything that actually works fairly well, other than buying a new set of assemblies?

I have used the 3m headlight restore kit before on older stuff and works good but sometimes the haze is just to much. The 3m kit is a liquid along with different sanding disks and buffers.

i used a kit from advance auto on my tahoe. it cleaned it up well but 7 months later it came back. and i accidentally got some on the white paint and you can see the discoloration.

They're not too bad. I just want them clearer and ready for the hid's





Also took the liberty of removing the bug shield things over the headlights

try the 3m kit, its wet sanding with 3 different grits and then some polishing compound. Should clean you up a little

I suggest getting these 94-01 DODGE RAM CRYSTAL CLEAR HEADLIGHTS + CORNER LIGHT: eBay Motors (item 310268996821 end time Dec-07-10 17:25:04 PST) They are clear which will make the hids brighter. Once you start trying to buff your headlights they will just get worse. Time for some new ones

i buff mine every cpl months once you start you gotta keep up with it i use a gritty boat wax cleaner and it works really well....
