yo dudes, i'm not too sure if this is the correct section to post this tread but anyways i find that my dc2's headlight covers are a tad yellow, probably from the heat from headlights after the years..
jus wondering whats the cheapest way to rectify that, instead of replacing the covers.
thanks in advance dudes.
just give them a cut and polish dude, they'll come up spraykly new
hey i have the same problem. whereabouts do i do that? I live in brisbane. its not that bad, but would be good if i can have totally clear headlight covers again. ;)
sand it down with 800 n 1200 grit sand paper until the yellow gone. spray with clear coat....
the insides or outside? it'll be ez if its on the outside, but i reckon the yellow bit is on the insides?
I had the same problem, decided to try one of those clay bars on them. Came up like a treat. Oh and it seemed to work better with minimal water used during application.
Are you serious ?Quote:

tracer: did u use the claybar on the exterior of the headlight casing? or did u open up the housing and clean the interior?

guys, do u sand or buff the exterior layer of the cover? or the interior?
How would you get to the interior ?
The casings are sealed with the exception ofthe plug that you can change the headlight bulb.
It is the exterior (i think)
hey dude,
yeh its the exterior. you can take them apart but thats a bitch.. i had to do that to my type r lenses as i didnt like the yellow fog lights, so i took them apart and smashed the yellow glass housing, cleaned the housing and put them back together..
