Cloudy DOT Headlight Fix Posted by RS [Email] (#15) [Profile/Gallery] (more from RS) on Tue, 29 Nov 2016 15:40:13 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
There was a post a little while ago about cleaning C900 DOT headlights by trying to remove the lens.
I was surfing to find out about what kind of alcohol to pour in and swish around to remove the normal DOT headlight haze and found this SAABNet post from 2004 abut taking a piece of bent hanger, making a bit of a hook, wrapping a bit of paper towel on the hook, and securing it with some wire wire. It was worth a try and worked well.
Did 6 headlights over the past couple of days with good success.
The big caveat is to wrap the wire tightly enough to not lose the paper towel in the headlight :-)
For those of us who have messed around with fiddles, the process is sort of like using a soundpost tool ... but much more forgiving of wee episodes of clumsiness.
Here's a pic of the tool.
