Ady Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Take them out - and use 'AutoSol' on them. Its metal polish. Will take a bit of effort but you can actually see the yellow crap thats come off on the rag you use. Well worth £4 and some good old fashion elbow greese. Faling that - a new set of lights? or some second hand UK glass lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_si Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 nice one mate. thought i may have to use wet n dry n stuff like that. gonna give them a spray too when the lights are off to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Meguiars Scratch X works well by all accounts, a few people here have used it with success. Brasso would probably do the trick too if you are desperate and already have some Or: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=40207 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suprasteve1979 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I did mine a while ago, 10 minutes at 100 degrees in the oven seems to be enough to make the sealant go sticky so you can prise them apart, I used a plastic polish from a caravan place for use on plastic windows, its in a yellow tube. Worked really well. But then I got some Glass ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
