EN V Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 right as some of you may know and proberly done it along time agobut i thought i would post anyway just in case well the headlights on my glanza v was really badly hazed which i believe to be dueto the sun and them not having uv protectionwell machine mart do a headlight restorer for a snip at £23 so i thought i would give it a lil goand i am really happy with the resultsbut on the downside it bloody makes your arms hurt loland this is how the finished lens looks now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spanner Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 just thought i would add, the universal t-cut works great as well,takes a few attempts but works wonders! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bildo Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Meguiars Plast-X is also fantastic for this, it's a polish made for plastics.The haze is mostly on the outside, you'll never get them looking as new as it seems to be internal or in the plastic itself where the rest of the haze is.Still a major improvement though.

EN V Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/...restoration-kitheres the link but this stuff comes with a uv protection cream aswellas bildo says there is like very fine cracks through the plastic lens and i got a bit of haze inside minebut all in all worth spending a few quid before looking for new light unit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Dude looks good, now you've done the hard work though I would advise getting some Phillips headlight bulbs as they prevent the yellowing of headlights as they have some sort of UV protection in 'em or something.

Dave L-W Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 i find that autosol metal polish works the best as its more coarse and gets rid of bad hazing.worked on my gt anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
