I want to replace my cloudy headlights (94' GS 300)
Can they just be removed and cleaned? Does any body else have this problem? What's the best thing to do? I'm guessing the heat from the lights helped to cloud the fixture...
I want them to be clear and shiny like the new GS! (I could be asking for 2 much!)

 

You mean chrome housing??? cuz they dont have and i dontkno how that would look .... but they have clear headlights...
check EBAy search under aristo headlights.........

 

I used 1000, 1500 and 2000 grit wet dry sandpaper and polished the heck out of them with hand glaze. They look like new.

 

if you do a search on cloudy headlights.... you may find many many hits as this is a common problem

 

My buddy had some stuff from mothers or meguires I can't remeber which. It was plastic cleaner. Rubbed on, rubbed off and they were like new.

 

its PlastX by Meguiars works aright

 

i agreee - i used this on my headlights and while it did make them less cloudy, the'y're not crystal clear

 

Auto Zone has buffers for 20 bucks, bout plastx and buffed em' like brand new

 

i do the same thing that eg8 does, wet sand them with fine sandpaper. It works pretty good, but make sure you keep the surface wet and the paper, then use a wax or polish.

 

you can clean them up on the inside to really easy I think someone from the SC forms did a complete write up on it on how to take apart the lights and polish and clean the inside as well I did this on my old lights and they came out like new and they were cloudy on the outside and yellow on the inside.

 

this shows you how to take the headlight apart an take out the orange piece https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...hreadid=127691

 

Thank you all for the info! I'll let you know how it goes down!

 

Im from nyc and use a castrol lube center on 4th ave and 43 st next to burger king and know this guy tony who services my car he use to have a gs and knows about it he made my head lights new for $40. I also had him flushed my tranny ,rear dif, fuel injection and changed my fuel filter I recommend this type of service for all this made a good car run smooth

 

Thanx for the info Grey. I know the area (Sunset?)...I'll check it out. I've been concerned about finding a good place to take the car since I just got it about 3 weeks ago...out of state. NYC has been rough on Baby!

 

I have a 93 GS 300...Only one of my headlights ended up being cloudy (the left one if memory serves) and I've seen the same thing happen in the rare event that I run across another first gen GS. Does anyone know if there's any particular reason that this happens? If so, would replacing it with a newer part alleviate the problem? ---->I will try cleaning it, however. Thanks for the tip.
