SoftScrub with Bleach bathroom cleanser has worked extremely well for me for more than a decade with these plastic headlamp lenses on several of our vehicles. I polish them every six months or so using this stuff on a damp 100% cotton rag, buff them dry with another 100% cotton rag, and that keeps them sparkling clean for me. Takes me only about two minutes per side and the more elbow grease utilized, the better the results.

Follow the treatment with clear uv protection. once the protection is lost, yellowing starts.

I used Mequiar's Keep Clear Headlight Coating Spray after restoring my headlights. It provides long lasting UV protection.

^ This. Our other car suffered from a delamination issue common to that make & model just a few years in. We had the headlights polished & clear coated and they've been going strong for 6 or 7 years now.
