Car Forum / Honda Cars / July 200498 civic headlights foggy..help please
I have a 98 civic with plastic headlights. They have become discolored and have a film on them. Someone told me that they think they might be able to be cleaned. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone have a solution? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, John Canbuilt Manufacturing (888 607-2926) carries a kit for re-newing plastics such as headlights. The kit consists of gloves, lint free cloths, a pre-cleaner to remove film and yellowing, a compound to remove cloudiness and a UV sealer to protect the surface. The one-car kit costs C$49.95 + C$7.00 shipping (if you buy it from them) or may be available from local distributors such as NAPA. I haven't tried it myself. You might also try a wrecker for clearer replacements. Dan (This account is not used for email.) > I have a 98 civic with plastic headlights. They have become discolored and > have a film on them.

I have seen it in Wal-Mart, although when I used it on my bikes (it's great for cleaning/shining chrome) I bought it in bike shops; it wasn't in Wal-Mart then. RFT!!!

Kennedy, 1960 inaugural speech Funny I have this same problem on my 99 Civic I was thinking of ordering this from Meguiers (I love there wax btw) http://www.meguiars.com/store_meguiars/product_detail.cfm?sku=G-123 Found this on EBAY. Has anyone tried it before? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7908661608&ca tegory=33710 John > Funny I have this same problem on my 99 Civic I was thinking of ordering > this from Meguiers (I love there wax btw) > http://www.meguiars.com/store_meguiars/product_detail.cfm?sku=G-123 I decided to check a few civics in my parkin lot when I got home, and I noticed that all 3 of the civics have fogged head lights. One appears to be a 95-96 and ther 2 appear to be 98-99 models. So I'm not sure if this a design problem or if it is just an issue with the weather hear in Florida :-/ Dennis Changed my name from Main Liner to lkitesplit. Anyhow, I live in New Mexico and have the problem here. So it must be a design flaw.
