What do you guys recommend I use to polish my headlights? They're kinda clouded.

Here's pics of what they look like now.

 

Some have used plain white toothpaste. Wally World sells a kit for about 10 bucks.

 

Tried several types, including the kit that you sand first, the apply a coating. All helped some, none was worth the effort on the pre 02's. Just my .02cent

 

That's pretty much what the 99-01 headlights are going to look like Pete. You can upgrade to newer headlights if you want a better look. Here's pics of my wife's 01 with my 02 headlights on it. (we also painted the grill a chrome color)



And then here's her truck when we put the 05-07 headlights on it

 

do you have to do any thing to the '02s to get them to fit a '00?

 

Nope, just swap them out.

 

How much does a set of 02 headlights cost? At the stealership or from ftepartsguy.

 

Several folks have been updating lately. I am, but have several are in line for my 02's now. Should be cheap for used ones. Look on the sites classified, may be some there, and no, mine are not there.

 

That and maybe a few choice words along the way.

Don't forget the wrecking yards. Barry had a good idea about the classifieds here. Go ahead and post a wanted ad down there. Maybe someone who has upgraded to the 05 lights will let there 02 lights go cheap. I can make you a heck of a deal on some 02 headlights, but they look exactly like the ones you have now.

 

We don't have any wrecking yards around here that would have un-cracked headlights. I guess I'm stuck gettin em at the stealership because I don't really trust Ebay all that much.

 

Ehay has all different styles that will fit 99 up.

lots of cool styles (smoked, crystal clear, 05 HID etc.)

you can get the 03 for about $100

Other wise, I just buff em up with lexan/fiberglass boat polish.

Enjoy

 

I payed $10 at the local Advanced Auto, it worked great on my old truck! 05 lights look good, just money!

 

Check TYC out. I put a set of their mustang lights in mine and have no problems. They are really good quality aftermarkets. Im thinking about getting a set myself. Only hard thing is finding a dealer near you! Their inquiry deal thing isnt working!

Ran across this as well....88 bucks for each side http://www.autolights.tv/wholesale/F...50__2002.shtml

 

I believe what is clouded up is the clear coat. You can take 2000 grit sand paper and wet sand them and it will take the clear coat off and then you need to buff them with plastic polish. I've done this for my girlfriends intrepid lights and it last for a while. You just need to apply the polish every once and a while to keep a coating on them.
