Rear Lense Hazing

Hi All,

If you dont know I have a euro 2001 4.4 sport. Just wanted to know as I'm sure its common, how do I deal with the 'hazing' of the rear light clusters?

Can I polish these out with rubbing compound and polishing mop, or is there something else/some other method someone can prescribe?

Any suggestions welcome

Start with polish, if it doesn't work then use the 3M headlight restoration kit

I used t-cut and alot of elbow grease to rub out a scratch some tw*t did on my rear lens, if it can rub out a scratch it wil remove haze

Try plastic X, it works pretty on headlights, tail lights and even instrument cluster clear plastic.

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I have ordered the 3M stuff for 27AUD$ delivered, so if it works it'll be a cheap fix for me.

Will report back once done
