Headlight Restoration
If it clears up and looks good after doing it, but turns yellow again shortly after, you could try putting a few light coats of clear on the headlights. Do this after the "cleaning" process. I ended up putting a light touch of clear on the Camry's headlights and they are still looking clear.
I thought about that, but was worried that the heat from the lights would bake the clear and eventually turn it yellow too. I need to just spend the money and get a clear headlamp set for the truck, it deserves it anyways...
I think thats the best condition I have ever seen that generation Camry's lights look... even BEFORE the repair job. Those cars were HORRID for that clouding.
Props to you man. I wanna try this on my wife's 6 but its not cloudy, its mostly little tiny rock chips.

Edit: I also wanted to mention again to all you guys that don't have these materials available - you can do this with the headlight restoration kits they sell in Wal-Mart and auto parts stores. Just make sure that the kit includes a sanding disc, as sanding is the key step to removing the hazing.

i have a pair of headlights off my truck that once i replaced mine with halos, i put in the back of my truck, they slid around and have a bunch of scratches on them. would this work on them?
