Foggy headlights

Eric357 · 02-15-2002, 05:11 PM

I washed my car today and noticed that the headlights were a little dirty still. They are dirty on the inside. Pulled the one piece headlight out and they are actually two pieces, the clear lense and the black plastic backing where the bulbs plug in. The factory clips that hold them together look like they are melted together to keep them together. How can I clean the inside lenses? Anyone run into this or any suggestions? It doesnt look to me like the halves can be seperated without breaking them. 2001 GT

uhhh. it has to be the outside. you can always wet sand and buff the outside but takes a lot of labor to do a good job and still doesnt come out like new ones. my advice, buy some new ones.

Your warranty will cover this, don't spend any $. I had to have them replaced on my Bullitt.
