Someone told me I could use toothpaste to brighten my faded headlights

I can't see at night any better, but my Toyota is minty fresh now

1. There are 3 step kits; clean, polish, seal

3. I've never had any luck from any of those kits or chemicals.

Perhaps I'll keep trying

2. Buffing compound for clear coat works great

and it's a lot cheaper than the kits.

4. Try Pepsodent

You'll wonder where the yellow went, when you wash your car with Pepsodent.

5. Check out youtube...

I'm sorry I don't have a link, but there is this guy on there that posts about how to do all sorts of things.

He has a video that I saw awhile back that showed a good method for restoring head lights. If I remember correctly, it involved wet sanding with progressively finer grits of abrasive paper. His lights came out like new.

Ooops...found the link:

6. We replaced our low beams bulbs with LEDs and at the same time replaced the lenses

Now our low beams are so bright people flash their brights at us to lower our beams. We asked the garage to replace the high beams with LEDs but if they did, they didn't replace the lenses so the low beams are still brighter than the highs.

I'm thinking of using a yellow stain on our new low beam lenses to tone them down.

7. Did you readit on reddit?

Though the kit worked on my 99 Mazda 626.
