My headlights look a bit tired :(

[Graham]

Now the winter is here, I have noticed my headlights are discoloured.

In short, I need a replacement pair of headlights.
I have new bulbs, waiting to go in, but feel it is pointless, while the clear plastic lens is looking cloudy.

I know it is a common problem with plastic headlights.

Where to get a pair?

Now if any one says, China I will scream !!!!!

If you zoom right in, it says "made in china" in bottom corner

Get the plastic lenses polished, good results are normally achieved.

You're heading for a slap Andy

Google it - loads and loads of petrolheads polish their plastic lenses to good effect.
A valeter will be able to do it for you if he's done them before. I think some people mop them (machine polish to the unititated).
Cheaper than replacing!!!
But then you'll want the car mopped and it'll cost you another 80 quid

Our local 4X4 place does our work vehicles, but I just noticed this at Halfords. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_922499_langId_-1_categoryId_255233

But when I look at them, it really looks like the discolouring is on the inside ?
