Hi guys

I will try to polish my headlights - it's the stock ones. Just want to be 100% sure that they are made from plastic. Can anyone confirm this? :-)

It's this product I will give a try tongue.gif http://www.headlight-restoration-kit.com/t...estorer-review/

Could do what I'm going to do, get some 9011 and 9012 HIR bulbs and modify the tabs(same manner as celicalibre mentioned using 9005 for low) to fit our housing. Same wattage, so don't have to worry about melting the harness. Now your low is brighter than high would be, and high is even brighter. Next best thing to HID.

9006 - 55 watts - 1000 lumens
9005 - 65 watts - 1700 lumens

9012 - 55 watts - 1870 lumens
9011 - 65 watts - 2350 lumens
