Default Headlights

Hi guys, I bough my crossfire last Friday and love it. I bought it knowing that I had a foggy headlight and man I must say I am having a nightmare.

I have managed to remove it and used tried to clean it without splitting the light. Sadly the improvement is not great.

I've popped it back on the car and now the indicator does not work.

It is not the bulb as I have swapped them over and now I have the exterior bulb failure light on.

I love the car, hate working on these headlights. Anyone know an easy way to split them?

Why are you trying to split them? Normally the "foggy light" can be buffed to like new (exterior) with the right product. Are you having problems with moisture on the inside?

Your location is in Derby - is that Kansas?

Why split, you can polish the outside and wash the inside, details are here.

They are only 5 or 6 hours in front of us here in Ontario, same as you I guess.
