Headlight restoration.

A replacement set for my X5. The OEM ones have a clear coat on them. The coat is cracking. It's impossible to remove the coat and save the headlights. Instead, this set will be cleaned up and installed. Looks like one side has more sun damage than the other one. I've used CERAKOTE ceramic successfully on a few sets. I want to restore these as best as possible.

What do y'all suggest? What's a good product to use? What order of grit paper to sand down the top layer?

Headlight restoration vs hitch installation are both up for next upgrades. Which one should I do first? :
