Any ideas to get rid of what looks to be oxidation on the headlamp lenses? I tried Meguiars fiberglass oxy remover and didn't help much....

Smash them out with the biggest effing hammer you can find. A twenty pound sledge will work. Then see if you can manage to get a catalog from those lazy bastards at C/K Resto and order some new ones.




I'm in a bad mood today. :evil:

ahh the powerball, greatest invention for applying compound...and removing it, just put a rag over the powerball and tape it around the shaft...saves like an hour removing the compound...

I think on certain plastics the haze isnt a coating but its all through the plastic. So some lights are not going to come out.
