i dunno if this has happened to anyone before but i am getting this rainbow effect, due to oil, on the inside of my headlights. how did it get there? there's no cracks, and no moisture on the inside, so how did get there? and how to get rid of it? when i saw it, it was 8pm in TX. maybe its just the way the sun hits it, but its kinda annoying.

Can you photoshop a bonobo monkey sitting the driver seat sippin' on a Bud light? that would look wicked.

Haha, way random...but agreed...no need to PS it...just go look for a car with what you are asking, it isn't uncommon!!!

To the OP, it is common, I noticed it for the first time after a GOOD wash/wax and thought I got wax on the lights. I think it is just something that happens when they are REALLY clean. I had 17k miles when I first noticed (but only 3k of that was under my ownership)
