How to clean corner lights

How do I or can I clean my corner lights? The ones right up next to the headlights. They're a bit yellowsish now, and I want to make them look clear again. Is there a link? Thanks

The yellowish color is caused by ultraviolet fading and other weathering. You most likely will not be able to restore the color like new. You can clean the inside by taking it out (remove one screw and pop the ball "screw" out of the socket) after removing the bulb, then cleaning the inside with some Windex and paper towels. Again, the yellow color is most likely on the outside, and that is a natural efffect of aging plastic.

You will have to put ur corner lamps in the oven or use a hair dryer/heat gun on the edges of the lense to soften the glue and eventually pry apart the lense and the housing assembly..then you can clean the inside.
