I have a 2003 FX45 and my headlights have a haze on the inside of the headlight. Does anyone else have the same problem? How do you remove the haze? Thanks in advance

Are you certain it's on the inside?

If they're polycarbonate (non-glass) lenses, it's likely on the outside, and a result of oxidation (sun and environmental damage). They can be buffed out with a good quality plastic polish.

If it's indeed on the inside, it's likely due to a compromised seal between the lens and housing.

I had this problem on my wife's VW. The dealer wouldn't do anything about it even though the car was under warranty. If the problem is on the inside and your dealer won't do anything about it, using the smallest drill bit you can find, carefully drill a small hole at the bottom outside corner. It solved my problem.
