Headlight lenses, 740.

Oct 09, 2003 3 Replies

I dropped a headlight the other day when removing it and shattered the lense, as one does. It wasn't too disastrous as it had a nasty stone chip in it anyway. I got a new one and installed it. I now have a nice, very clear, lense and a rather dirty old lense on the other side. Would it be worth taking the other lense out and giving it a good wash inside and out, or does the dirt bond with the glass after a time.



It's not important, just cosmetic.

Mine washed up great in the dishwasher. Wife almost used one as a casserole dish :)

Try the dishwasher and efter that some polishing can be needed. Dadick U¿ytkownik "Stuart Gray" napisa³ w wiadomo¶ci news:3f85a3e0$0$27816$ snipped-for-privacy@news.dial.pipex.com...

It's worth trying to give it a good scrub, but often the glass gets pitted so an old one will never look as good as a new one. Mine had minor pitting in the glass when I got them, I applied that protective film and it made them look like new.
