I have a 1999 SS and my headlights look hazy and spider webed looking tried some novus plastic scratch remover #2 and it didnt do shit what else works? Or just replace with the black Halo lights?

is it like all foggy looking? someone told me to wet sand with 2000 grit paper and then polish them when im done

**1SSWFO** · 08-30-2005, 07:33 PM

its really like they are very small cracks. I have no freaking idea what caused them I always take extreme caution when Im washing it. I have heard the same thing but if i f@#$ it up Im out a headlight.

It's the plastic breaking down from a lot of UV light exposure from the sun. You've got a '99 and I suppose it has been outside most all the time, so you're due for new headlights. You could try the wet sanding then polishing to make them last a little longer, but you're going to have to replace them before long.

well i thought that would be the reality check answer but im a cheap bastard so i figured i would try.

and yeah it has spent alot of time outside with previous owner and the first 3 years i had it oh well i have a garage now, too little too late i guess.

Once their cracking it's all over. Mine did the same thing, 1500 and 2000 wouldn't help a bit. So I bought some VHT Niteshade spray paint and took care of it that way.
