depends how bad they are, when i first bought my car they weren't too bad, but noticeably yellow. i just use carnauba wax from mothers, i got a clay bar, small bottle of wax and instant detailer for around $30 from autopro, dont sand them unless they're really really bad and clearcoat them or something, i did this on my mazda and they turn yellow every few days now. heres a pic of the wax i use (on the left) vdjspf.jpg on the bottle is says 'removes oxidation' which is that yellow shit. this stuffs pretty good, i wash my car once a week and i only have to wax my lights once a month, all u need is one quick coat which takes 2 minutes.

heres pics when i 1st got my car

PM N1GTR he was having a group buy thing for head light reconditioning that was ment to run until june i think but had to shut it down early... it was going to be like $140 ish i think from memory but was a pro job and would take about a week in sydney.. he could prolly give u a number to fix it up for good. or i use mothers plastic polish works a treat and lasts about a month or so

GlassyLite!! i bought it at a car show last year as a last resort before i bought new headlights.

mine were as yellow as an old mans teeth that smoked a pack a day for at least 30 years. then come up very clear.

i don't really have any before or afters but highly recommend!

so do you take out the headlight and clean the inside or just scrub the sh*ts on the outside?

With GlassyLite its like a cut n polish but for your head lights. It comes with real fine sandpaper to get out the real cruddy stuff which you sand with running water on it, then apply cleaner and shine followed by the sealant. all done on the exterior!

hey guys,

what can i buy from where for how much and what would i have to do with it to clean the gross murky look of my headlights

thanks,

Andrew

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
