Glad this question was asked, seems like good results. I was going to source new headlights  but will try the T-cut method later. Cheers fellas, saved me some cash

When you do try it, get back and let us know how you got on!! 

  Well i'll be buggered, works a treat. Gave them 2 going overs and come up excellent. Many thanks for the tip fellas   Thinking about popping down the road tonight and doing just one lamp on each of my neighbours cars, maybe a vertical line

Hi had the same problem and found that UPVC cleaner worked on mine. It is around £6 a bottle and does take a bid of work thought. It cleared the headlights and was well worth the time. Andy

I've found the best way to bring up miggy's lenses like glass is with a product called Meguiars Plast RX clear plastic cleaner & polish  needs a good quality yellow duster and plenty of ebow grease,but well worth the effort

Don't laugh when I tell you this but toothpaste also works on headlights !

Does that give you a 5000k "whiteness"??

So can i, reckon he's on the Crest of a wave with this idea. My mate Mac cleans his with Sensodyne....he swears they fill in all the small indents in the plastic hence the shine.

Fine wet 'n dry is ok (~1000 - 1200 grit), followed by cutting compound, then a final buffing up with T cut, brasso or something similar. 

My headlamp lenses were in a dreadful state so I used very fine wet and dry, well lubricated) followed by Meguiars PlastRx (from Fleabay) - it worked a treat and has lasted well.  Try on a small area that is not prominent first.  Be careful if using fast rotating power tools to buff up your lenses - I have heard it is possible to melt lenses with these!
