348 Headlight Cleaning

Hey guys I just thought I would post Before & After photos. Took the F car to dinner last night and I could barely see anything and I realized that my headlights were so fogged and hazed they were like cataracts! 1st of all removal is quite easy. I lifted the lights and disconnected the battery to keep them up with no chance of them closing and severing your finger! Remove the outer trim held with 4 phillips screws. Then if you manually wind the motors you can get another 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch of clearance and the lights pop right out, Just as described in the owner's manual you unsnap them from the clips and they come right out with a little manipulation. Once they are out you will notice that the side that has the reflective lens has 3 1 way screws but if you take a large flat head screwdriver you can actually unscrew these 3 screws and remove that portion of the housing. And finally using a pair of long reach hemostats and a few paper towels soaked with windex I was able to clean the lenses and they are now crystal clear! The lights are easily 50% brighter at night! I plan on doing the front running and turn lenses next!
