That can't be on the inside. Go buy some Meguiars plastX and apply it on with a pad and wipe off with a microfiber. This stuff does wonders. Do it a few times too.

I did that with the Plastx before and still had this result. It's 25% outside and 75% inside of the headlight.

I wouldnt open your head light if I were you, never be the same factory seal again. If it is on the inside, buy new lights altogether. You open them by heating up the factory seal with a hot air gun and pull them open.
You know your car better than me but I doubt the oxidation is on the inside. I recommend this kit because its the same price as other head light restore compounds but this one comes with sanding blocks & spray lube for wetsanding (if needed), a restoring compound AND a SEALER after your done to stop future oxidation and its $10 for all of that. It works great.

Totally agree on the devotion part! Thumbs up for doing in the winter!
What was the temperature like in Celsius when you've done it?

Happy and safe winter driving man!
