2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission cure for yellow headlights

[VolsFan]

I have searched for a cure for yellow headlights for sometime and nothing has seemed to work too well on my truck. Tried the Mr. Clean pads, did the aluminum mag wheel polish, nothing got it to where I wanted it at, plus I am really anal when it comes to stuff being perfect, especially with my truck. The other day when I was at Napa, I picked up "5 minute Headlamp Lenses Restorer" and boy does it work. It is the best $10 I have ever spent on the truck. Comes with 6 pads that go onto a plastic base that goes into a drill. I sprayed it with water and just let the pad do its magic, and it worked very well. You could actually see all the junk caked on the light collect on the bumper. The lights look like they are brand new. Looks especially well with the clear side lights I have on the truck. I havent driven it in the dark yet, but I am sure it will help, my low beam visibility was getting pretty crummy. Just wanted to share a positive experience with a product, hoepfully it will help somebody out.

For real improvement, try the sport headlights. It's been one of my favorite bombs and for the $, you can't beat it.

Yup. I bought a set of those pads a few years ago, just to play with, to see what else they might work on. Dunno why, but my headlights are still plenty clear after 11 years and 250K miles.

JMConst,

Can you post more info. on sport headlights?

Thanks, Ray

Sport headlight assemblies use 2 bulbs per side, instead of 1. And if you add a relayed wiring harness (*HIGHLY* recommended,) you can run both low beams or both high beams for quite a bit more light.
