Any way to clean 96 headlights?

I was comparing my headlights to some other 96's in the area and I noticed that mine were very whitish, kinda cloudy. Is there any way to clean them and make them look somewhat newer? Do they make any polish for glass?

97-99.5's are plastic, 95-96 are made of glass.

The inside of your lenses are pretty much protected from anything so that isnt your problem, its most likely the outside.

I use Pledge Wood Cleaner for my outside lenses because it works.... Not sure why, but it does, look for a plastic cleaner of some sort.... I tried Meguier's Vinyl and Rubber Protector and that worked well too.... PUSH HARD!
