    If you can toast bread, you can bake your head lights.

    Well The first one i did the cookie sheet wasn't big enough and there was a little meltage but then I just put tin foil to fill the gaps where the heat came up through and it worked out great. I also did it on 200 F. and for 9 min.

    yeah I got a little imperfection on one of mine where it melted a little bit. It's not horrible, just looks like bug splat at the very bottom of my headlight.

    very nice! makes quite a difference looks wise
    yeah when I did mine I touched the inside of the lens and it looks all dirty now but I don't feel like taking them apart again.

    Those headlights look about a billion times better after doing that.

    They get really tough and chewy, and no amount of A1 can help.
