You can get same result with some rubbing compound and a good terry towel

Yea I actually saw a brand new headlight for sale on Kijiji and I couldn't believe how crystal clear they are from the factory! :o

But yeah any plastic polishing compound will work and also, for the hardcore home innovators (jesse will like this one), toothpaste! Yes, it will also restore the headlights almost as good! Saw it an auto tv show :)

I have brand new from Mazda headlights on my mx3 :P

I cleaned my old headlights over and over again then someone randomly showed up to a meet with brand new in the box headlights. Clean headlights make a huge difference in the look of the car.

I've also done the toothpaste trick, it works but fades away very quickly back the the old dirty look.
