Are These Headlights Too Far Gone
Hi Folks,
These are the high dollar HID units on a 2001 RX300. I can hear ballast whine and low beams are a little cool at first start but white after warmup and high beams are a warmer period..
So, are these beyond polishing?
Thanks

This is what I do:
Stay away from sanding.
Use a product like Plastix to clear out the haze.
Wax the lens.
Dull haze comes back in 6 months (argh!)

Agreed. I use polishing compound with my high speed buffer on a low speed setting. Yes, it takes some talent to use a buffer, but the results are outstanding. Just remember not to stay in one place too long. And keep it wet.

Thanks Guys,
I got the 3M with kit before your replies came in.
I could have done better but this is my first learning curve run at it.
Its my 16 year old's first car and getting those to light better was a priority.
I'll take more time next run.
