My headlights lenses have oxidized and now look yellowish; not an elegant look. On another vehicle I have, I was able to get new plastic lenses off ebay and I replaced them with outstanding results, after which I applied Xpel Lens Protection which will guarantee a long clean life. Do lenses come off headlight? If not, then I don't have too many options! I'm wondering if someone has done this to their truck. Mine are xenon and I could have also have someone clean them, but results are never permanent, per my experience. I'd wanted to post some pics to show my previous results, but when I click on insert image, this is what I get: [ img ][ /img ] How do you post images on this forum? Thx.

This weekend I had someone come and do my headlights and here are the pic before and after. He did a terrific job. I'd recommend this gentleman to anyone interested. MY headlights look new, unbelievable! I'm also gonna laminate them with Xpel which should give them a long life. Not sure why "Tinypic" is showing pic in wrong orientation, reason I'm not showing all pics taken, but you get my point.

Finally, I was able to get "Tinypic" to work right, and here are my before and after pics

I didn't have to, they're so bright so there was no need, they're the xenon type.
