I have been doing this mod for a very long time now! i bet you can do it a few hours but i just wanted to take my time and do it right! everything came out perfect... the only thing i didn't like was when i put the plastic clear cover back on... i wet sanded and buffed them out but they still look a lil yellow and not as clear as my other set of headlights!
when i was putting them on i noticed that i put the black gasket upside down!! meaning when i put them on there was a mean o gap between the lights and the front bumper! so i have to take off the gasket and turn it around so there won't be a gap! ![Bang Head](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_banghead.gif)

i wet sanded them with 1000 and i used 3M rubbing compund and it turned out good but i really wanted them to look like my other set so i went and bought this "CLEAR HEADLIGHT" cream at Autozone and i tried it out in a lil area and it didn't clear them up!

I wetsanded mine with 1000 and 2000 grit sandpaper,then I buffed them using Turtle Wax Rubbing Compound and Fine Scratch Remover.I finished them off with some Meguiar's PlastX.
I'll post before and after pics in a lil bit.

PlastX on helps to give them a shine not to get rid of the yellow **** on the headlight.If you want to get rid of the yellow stuff you need to wetsand it at a high grit(1000-2000) and then buff them.
