Clear Headlight Lenses?

So the stock fourth gen headlights are foggy even when cleaned, and I don't really want new headlights, I just want clear lenses. Are there any clear lenses that fit the 98 z28? Or do I have to buy Halos?

you cant buy lenses you best bet is to go to walmart and get a headlight restoration kit...

you can use that on the inside and outside of the lens

Works great...try it on your scratched watch crystal. Headlights are going to require a bunch, I believe the professionals call the polishing substance "jewelers rouge"?

I just tried toothpaste and it worked, but not THAT much. Are the lenses for the z28 just naturally cloudy? I've never seen new ones.

use compond on them....its griddy, and it will clear them up...how much is up to you..you can also wet sand them down with 1000 grit or 1500 grit, and then use the compond to clean them up. The sun does some damage...can you imagine what it does to your skin??
