Default Great Headlights!

I've had my 02 Sc since last June. It only has 27K miles on it and it looks new except for the headlights. I went to Autozone to buy the 3m headlight restorer kit and they didn't have it. They had their own kit which was very similar to the 3m product. It too has a rubber disc and auger that goes into YOUR drill and discs with polish. You spray water on the disc and go to work. In 5 minutes, both headlights looked new. Great product for $10. I still had 3 (out of 6) discs left and gave the kit to my son for his G35. It is amazing stuff. Hope this can help others.
