Take some rubbing compound and rub out the entire headlight...then use some wax to polish it up...what you have to do is rub away a "layer" of the headlight cover...

Other people have used fine sandpaper also...depending on how bad your lights are, you may need to go this route...also, if you use any kind of power tools (buffer or sander), be VERY, VERY careful. It's easy to overdo (or melt) it with power tools...
