Is there any clear corners i can get to match the HID's on a 95 Mark? I need some bad cause the HID's next to the old clear corners looks horrable.

i dont believe they do did yoy try to buff them out

Posted by: clintjw95

I used high grit sand paper but it still looked the same.

just sandpaper, or did you sand and buff too? if all you did was sand, then it is still going to be very cloudy. if not more.

Yeah. You have to WET sand them in case you didn't, then either 1) clearcoat them 2) buff them with rubbing compound.

edit: buffing won't clean the inside.

I used Mother's Mag & Aluminum polish paste after wetsanding on headlights. Works great.

Meguiar's PlasticX works great. I did my 98 LSC cloudy a$$ headlights and they look presentable now. Strange they went cloudy almost over a period of a month.

Ah. Pick up some 3M two or three stage compound, the money's worth the time it saves.

That scratchX is superdeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeduper fine, pretty much as course as dirty water.
