cleaning headlights
Hi everyone. I have a 95 Eagle Talon and I was wondering if there was ANY possible way to clean the interior of the headlights. It is driving me insane and I don't have the money to replace them right now!! Thanks...Erin.

Re: cleaning headlights
welcome to AF. I would take them all apart take all the electrical out and put some water with some kind of cleaning solution in there. I dont have a talon so I dont know if you can do what I just said alls I know is you can do it with my car.

Thank you for replying!! (Can't spell) I know how to get the headlight out, but I do not know how to take it apart or even if it is possible to take it apart. Is it hard to do on your car?

Re: cleaning headlights
Are they foggy/dirty looking? That stuff might be on the outside then. Check this out: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...light+cleaning

Re: cleaning headlights
ya try reading the FAQ. it's the thing in the bottom of my sig that says FAQ.
check my write-up for how to remove the amber. this is how you get them open. i think that acetone was the general good feeling for a cleaner. or mabey it was something like 'never use acetone' LOLOL

Re: cleaning headlights
Plastic pollish works great on unfogging headlights. One of mine was foggy, used that bad-boy and cleaned it right up. Looks great.

I work at an Advance Auto Parts and we sell a kick ass product by Meguiars, its called PlastX. Its like around 5 bucks a bottle, it takes off the haze on the outside of the headlight, the stuff that looks like its on the inside.
