Hey, your in GA, check out www.seloc.net for Atlanta meets.

I use Meguiars Plasti-X, it really gets off tons of dirt off your headlights.

I used this new lens polishing system from walmart. It works pretty damn good. It's a polishing kit consisting of a 2" polishing disc and several foam polishing heads. It has polishing compound in the foam already. Just hook it up on a drill and you will be good to go.

If you have really deep scratches and pits follow my sets of insructions.
1) Mask off all the painted body areas around the headlight housing.
2) Use some 400 grit sandpaper to sand down all the deep scratches and pits. Afterwards, use 600 to smooth it out. Keep working your way up 800, 1000, 2000.
3) Use the polishing kit for about 5-10mins per housing.

Afterwards you will have some amazingly clear headlights!
