I did that myself and it works awesome , but I got lazy and went and got a couple sets of euro glass.No more sanding. :) Much easier that way.The kit has different sanding pads some cream polish and a buffing pad.You will need a power drill.I used my cordless but there is not enough power. :shrug:

Comes with all the sanding pads, and an adapter you attach to your household drill, providing it has sufficient RPM's

It's not hard to do, took maybe 15 minutes each light.

I have an almost new Makita cordless 18v drill, I had to slow it down, too much RPM's

I use a Mothers Power Ball (the small one) and it works great for polishing. Just did my MX-6 lights last nite by hand for like 1 minute each with Meguires mirror glaze 17 clear plastic cleaner. Man that stuff works really fast. It also took scuffs off my side visors after just a couple of wipes. Amazing. http://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-10-Plast ...

Good write up so far keep it up.
