In Reply to: Clear headlight front lens replacement??? posted by Bart B. on January 14, 2001 at 10:10:41:

...the excellent information, links, pictures, et al. The suggestions are much appreciated and now I can't wait to try something.

I'll probably remove the headlight assembly, then replace the bulbs with old ones I've still got from my pickup. That'll probably seal the headlights from water entry and make it easy to polish them.

These procedures are exactly like polishing optical lenses; you start with a coarse abrasive, then work to a finer one. My guess is the clear lens front is about .050- to .060-inch thick and may well be able to take a few such polishings.

Thanks again,

Bart
