There seems to be a small 4 oz bottle available at online shops for ~$5+S&H or the large 16oz container for ~$12+S&H. Do a Google search for the product name. Some places list S&H for about $6 for the large bottle. Other sites don't let you see what shipping is until you give them your vital information. I hate that type of site and skip them. I want to know up front what S&H is before I fill in a lot of data and give them a CC number etc. Sites should be built to allow you to enter a zip code for shipping costs b4 you enter identifying info.
BTW, I checked MotorHaven and they did not have it. I have not checked all of our sponsors.

There is a product on the market called Autosol that is used for polishing chrome and stainless that the bigrigs use and I have done my Tempe and 95 Crown Vic and it works very well.It cleans the yellow off the lens and polishs it and looks quite nice.

I also did the 2000 grit wet or dry paper also on a 95 Cougar and then followed up with regular auto polishing compound. It did a decent job, but may have to be redone in six months or so. I had the stuff in the garage so the cost was 0. I used the electric auto buffer for the auto polish. made the job go fast. Need to be careful around painted areas if you don't take the lens off the car, which I didn't do.

I used flitz metal polish on mine, did a great job, got refered to it from a friend, but there is still a brown film around the edges of the lens that turns the color of them, when you look at it during the day, a light brown color from the edges, any tips on hitting that spot?
