Only did one side. Too tired to do the passenger's side. Would like to get some daylight comparison pictures too. I had no idea my headlights were so bad until I did this. Not sure if I want to go HID's now, or just run Silverstars for a while. The headlights were so hard to change on my last car, I never messed with them in the 3 years I owned it.

I know there are other threads on this, but didn't see any with close up pix. Thought others might like to see. I plan on doing the foglights as well, but will see about removing them from the car, since they sit somewhat recessed to the bumper. Getting into the tight point near the bottom of the grill was a little difficult with the large diameter wheel they give you.

BTW, if you're going to do this, use LOTS of tape. I used 2 layers of masking tape then another 2 layers of duck tape, and kept the duck tape close by. As soon as I noticed a wear spot in the tape I added another piece or two.

 

Makes you feel good, don't it? I end up fixing friends and neighbors cars (headlights) for beer, just because...

 

Nice job and thanks for the pictures!

 

Nice Job
I used this kit
Headlight Restoration Kit

A lot of work but man does it make a difference in the look of the car. I tell ya...we can put a machine on Mars
but we cant develope a plastic or a coating that wont degrade... Whats up with that

 

Looking good. I did the Meguires Restoration and I loved the results.

I used the Meguire's protectant. Think I'm going to put some on the wife's new van, so maybe I won't have to do this to it in a few years. Unlike me, she'll keep a vehicle till the wheels fall off... then ask me to put them back on.

 

My girlfriend was on pinterest and found a cheap way to clean up headlights using toothpaste. I'm going to try it out in a few days, just thought I would share.

If that doesn't work I've got a brand new I'd be willing to part with as I had the body shop take care of my headlights

 

5 words that my wife uses that make me cringe are "I found this on Pintrest"

Are you supposed to use a paste or a gel type? Maybe something with extra whitener or plaque control - don't forget to floss them when you done

Just razzing you a bit -

I've heard about this treatment but have never tried it. Would be interesting to see if it really works.
