If I knew how I would offer advice. Find a shop or someone that knows how and give it a go. It will have to be buffed afterward to see if it worked or not. _____________________________ ''''04 2.4l 5M EX Sedan Neuspeed short shift kit V-6 6 speed front strut/firewall brace 17mm rear anti sway bar AEM Shorty DC Sports SS Header Kicker Speakers JL Audio Clean Sweep JL Audio Amp 200W Bazooka sub V-6 OEM 7 spoke alloys (in reply to sir_nasty) Post #: 4

RE: I NEED HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!! - 4/18/2008 5:50:40 PM    Daver   Posts: 9 Joined: 4/11/2008 Status: offline also something else that came to mind is on my old mustang (yeah I am originally a ford guy) the headlights did not drain, somehow they would let water in but no drain.. I had to take the assembly out and wash the inside of them, before putting them back I drilled a few small holes in the lower sections of the headlight unit, which fixed it pretty much. so make sure it is something on the outside, either way you will get the same yellowish tinting of the lense..

RE: I NEED HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!! - 9/15/2008 3:46:44 PM    19Accord97   Posts: 3125 Joined: 3/5/2006 Status: offline There is a headlight cleaning/restoartion kit for $20 at wal-mart or any other auto place.  Also, Krylon makes a clear coat spray the blocks UV rays.  If you just wet sand it down you get rid of the buildup but are allowing uv to destroy the headlight again by entering through the lens, bouncing off the reflectors inside which then destroys all of the headlight. _____________________________ *Quit Later (in reply to RTexasF) Post #: 11

It has grit to cut through the haze and a polish to shine it up. _____________________________ 2008 Accord Coupe EX Silver (in reply to 19Accord97) Post #: 12
