Cloudy headlight lenses
My headlights have gone all cloudy on my 2002 Van, I guess the indestructible plastic is not UV resistant after all. 
I have seen restoration kits advertised and so on, but my thinking is that a polish or rubbing compound should restore the lenses. Anyone have some advise?

Everyone above has given you good and true advice. Toothpaste, Mothers aluminum polish, regular finishing compound for a paint buff, most anything with a very mild abrasive will remove the clouding. Just use a slow buffer and be patient and gentle. You can even do it with a soft cloth if you have the patience and your arms hold up.

I've got a bottle of some stuff that i picked up from Advanced Auto and it turned my fog lights from yellow to clear again on my Dakota. I'll take a look for it tomorrow and post it up.
