Tried cleaning them up when I pulled them apart fro the AE headlight thing, and it cleaned them up, but the outside is really crappy looking with lots of little scratches and pits. Is there a glass polish or a rubbing compound that I can use with my Dremel and a polishing wheel to clean them up a bit????

 

This is the only one that comes to mind. It can be applied by hand or random orbital polisher. I've never used it, so I can't comment on it's effectiveness. Other items I've ordered from them have been good, alebit expensive.

glass polish

 

You can try the suggestion that BluesBreker gave or the following:

Autoglym Glass Polish

Zaino Z-12

 

anyone know if our glass is coated?

most these products say "not for coated glass"

 

What they mean by coated glass is glass similar to Ford's Insta Clear. The glass on A32 and A33 Maxes is uncoated. I am not sure if the glass on the A34 is coated.

 

I think my car has got Plastic headlights and not "Glass" headlights. Does all the 4th gen cars have Plastic and not glass headlights ?

 

1. Wet sand 1500grit
2. Wet sand 2000grit
3. Rubbing compound applied with hand or buffer.
4. Clean heads with glass cleaner.

 

95-96 has glass headlights
97-99 have plastic
