    This past weekend I took care of my wife's headlights on her AWD Pacifica since I noticed some pitting in them. They were not cloudy but I suspected they may get cloudy if I didn't take care of them early on. My friend found this PDF and it worked awesome on his Caddy and sent the link to me..I tried it, and the lenses are now pretty clear but I didn't follow all the steps with the sandpaper...anyways, thought I'd share it with you guys. You can save it to a folder on your PC for future use as well since it should work for most cars.
