He's asking for an answer, Jackass
Seems a large percentage of the posters in this forum have no useful advice to offer other than "Search the archives" . In the same amount of time it takes to post that smartass response, you could give an answer to the question. If you don't want to help, don't even answer.
Go to an adult forum, such as those for BMW and Mercedes owners, and see how a real enthusiast, rather than a punk responds to questions. I have seen the same question asked and answered dozens of times in those forums, without the dip**** punk replies.
I DO own a 2000 SC300 and a 1996 SC400, as well as a BMW 740IL and a Mercedes 560SL, so I feel I have earned the right to respond.
By the way, one way to get rid of the 'fog' is to remove the assembly, dry it with a blowdryer, then seal with clear silicone sealant. To remove discoloration (yellowing) use a damp cloth and toothpaste (not gel) . Luckily, my cars are garaged, and even though I live in rainy Florida, I haven't had to deal with that issue yet

Hey, Im new to this forum and I already knew to search. Those links listed here I found through searching and were very detailed. I removed the headlight to do my BFI and while I was at it I decided to clean the headlight since it had water in there. I used the oven method and some plastic polish and about an hour later I had a very clear, very clean headlight. I was VERY impressed. Opening it up and cleaning it made it much clearer than just polishing the outside of the housing. Now, I gotta do the other side.

Mature individuals don't resort to name-calling. As a new member, it's not best for you to come here insulting our members with your blanket statements. Most of us here don't give a crap about BMW and Mercedes, let alone what occurs on their forums.
