[Ian+R]

Hi Guys & Girls, Does anybody know were i can get a set ( O/S & N/S) headlights that are in good VGC, don't say E-bay i've looked at the price, ouch,I'm sure someone knows someone,and I was hoping to get them from the UK. If anyone can help that would be great. Please Help,many thanks Ian+R

I'd simply keep an eye out for a single headlight here or there Ian... The odd single light pops up every once in a while on (sorry, E-bay) How come you are after a set?

Hi BDC, mine have some sort of film/scratches all over them and I've tried lots things to get it off, if its is a film, but to no avail, not unless you can think of anything, if you can that would be great

try using a body mop with a finishing paste, that usually poloshes all the scuffs etc out, if not then you may find what looks like scratches are in fact tiny cracks, in which case its replacement only

Oh Ian of little faith, speak to our Bongo god here in our midst. He hath the answer.

Aha! Now i have the details of your problem, i'd echo what Julian suggested Ian... Pop into any bodyshop (or valeter) and they'll whizz the old buffer/mop over your headlights i'm quite sure... A practised hand with a buffer should shift that film with a decent grade compound. Failing that, how about some fly eyes (matrixed tint film)to make the lights appearance look a little better?

My front headlights are yellowish and hazy?

Is there a way of cleaning this off?
