Default Hello from Oklahoma

Hey guys, been bouncing around this site for 6 months or so now and just recently registered. 06 Crossfire here. 84,xxx miles. Cars been in my family for 10 years. Always garage kept. Just recently acquired the car from my mothers passing. Ive driven it several times since she's owned it, never really got into till now. No real issues with the car except some parking lot dents and dings and of course the foggy headlights. These little cars are a blast to drive.

Welcome, if the fogs on the outside they can be easily cleaned and restored. If it is one the inside I'm not sure.

Welcome Chris from Oklahoma. You're right the cars are a blast to drive and even better when you own it. Restoring your headlights is the best option they're too expensive to replace.

If the inside of either headlight is foggy you can remove that by rinsing the inside with "pure" methanol. It requires removing the headlight pouring some methanol in the running light lamp hole, swishing it around and pouring it out. You do this several times to remove the fogging inside. There are threads on the forum going into more detail on this.

Here is an Amazon link for methanol I used in restoring a used headlight:
