Does anyone know how to make the dull plastic for the headlights clear again? Is there anything cheaper than the special cleaner that costs over 20 dollars?
Mothers Plastic Polish is supposed to be the goods... $15.50 from AutoOne or SupaCheap.
The guys on the Soarer forum rave about its ability to restore the clear headlights back to new.
I was sick of looking at my really bad Soarer headlights and thought it was all on the inside so I told Dad that I was going to pull them appart and fix them like i've read people doing.
Well my dad is Mr. Make Do. He has no idea about cars but can fix just about anything wrong with them with a piece of wire and a shifter (a really rough truck driver). Well I went inside then and came out with dad using a cutting compund (not cut and polish) on the outside of my headlights. I freak out whenever I see him near my car...especially doing stuff to it. Well it worked a treat. I have not only got PERFECT looking headlights now but they work heaps better too. Thanks dad.
