Default Repairing Scratched Headlight Lenses

Does anyone know if there is a way to repair very heavily scratched headlight lenses?

I'd say that you'll have a hard time removing scratches on the headlight lense itself. The plastic is such that while the likes of Zaino and other plastic cleaners may hide, or lighten some of the scratches, they won't disappear completely. I suppose it depends on how badly they are scratched, and how the scratches were caused.

Those folk who have cleared their headlights may be able to offer some advice on how to replace just the lense, but finding "just" the lense itself might be difficult.

I'd scour ebay since often you can pick up good quality, used headlights for a reasonable price.

Good luck!
