I havent had to use any deoxidizer's and have been using plast-x on my headlights for several years with no problems, and havent touched my SC's headlights in over a year and a 1/2.

will you buy them for me? glass lenses can haze and oxidize just like plastic ones, its just not as obvious and takes much longer..but it would be nice to have glass highbeams.

I always thought all SC high beams were glass. Mine are.

My high beams are also glass (1996 sc300).
Let me know when glass low beams become available, if ever, because I'm getting sick of plastic headlights.
