I'm shopping for a replacement car and found a 2001 Forester with 92,000 miles. It appears to be a really clean car but the headlights have dulled - plastic.

Are there after market replacements?

But more important, are there any issues I should look for when considering an 01 Forester?

The rear hatch latches tend to rust up and stick making it hard to open the latch. May or may not be a problem and not major but, I see it somewhat regularly after 110000 or so. Other than that, if the cooling system has had the Subaru conditioner added you should be ok.

3m and probably other companies have a restoration kit that works pretty well to get the dullness out of the headlamps hop this helps just go to any autoparts store.:grinyes:
