Anyones headlights blurry or fogged up?

Mine were, so I went to my Infiniti dealership and they said it was just the films over the headlights. They polished it for free and now they look like new! (Just to inform anyone that has the same problem!)

Yeah, its gets foggy over time, as long as its on the outside, its not a big deal, they just use some 3M platic polish, buff right out, but if its on the insides? its whole different story.

You can really use any wax that has little to no abrasive in it. Just make sure you use something to protect the surface otherwise you'll be polishing them every week.

Ummm...I don't know that I would be so quick to buff it out. The headlamps supposedly have a UV coating to protect the plastic.

I have this also. After you polish it, what can you use to protect it?

The wax that you used to polish them with...simple one step process.

I make it a habit of waxing the headlights and tailights everytime I wax the car as well.
