I followed the instructions here:

Headlight Restoration Guide - Subaru Legacy Forums

The urethane / mineral spirits step did wonders. I couldn't believe how clear the lights look after this step. It's worlds better than before sealing. Huge difference. And it's very easy (I was concerned this step would be difficult but it's not).

Very good info.
I put 3M clear protectors on my iS, Lamin-X on the E39
