Dingy Fog Lights

My foglights r r so dirty I am suprised any light shines through them. What do u guys use to clean them? Is there a solution that I can shake inside of them? Do I have to clean the outside or both inside and out? Do you use the same process for corner lights and healights?

You'd probaly have to take them off the car and put them in the oven and "melt" the seal off and then clean the inside of it. If you were to just "pour" a solution into there then it might not all dry and it would look like you would have a condensation leak...and you don't want that look.

So take them out and do the oven thing, i've never done this but MANY have on teh org for customization of amber corners and all. So start a new thread asking how to "melt" the seal from headlights/fog-lights.

Hope this helped

I am betting they are sand blasted from highway driving. I hear you can buff them up like said above.
