Does anyone know of a cleaner that will take the foggyness and haze off headlights that i can find around my house, i dont want to buy a $30 dollar product and use it once.
Thanks

And one to take the "yellow" out of them as well. My GF has a Taurus and her headlight lenses are turning yellow and if you want to replace them you have to replace the whole headlight unit and I'm not gonna spend that kinda cash on a car like that.

Thats what I was going to recommend, it's probably the best stuff-for the head light!
