Folks,

Both my headlights have gone a bit opaque. Where do I get another pair from, please? Its not a show car so I don't want to remortgage to buy these, but I would like a clear set of lenses.

Cheers

Richard
 
I was under the impression these could be polished .. cutting compound etc and brought back to almost new condition .. diy kits are available i believe .

I know 996 can be done as our detailer at work does them .

lens are not a replacement item as far as i'm aware as they are bonded in place .. but that's just my guess .
 
100%. The oxidisation can be removed. Jump onto YouTube and search for headlight restoration and you will find hundreds of videos which advise products and methodology.
The cheapest solution was done with Toothpaste. Give it a crack and see how it turns out. I'm curious if it's as effective as their video suggests.
