Default Sti headlight problem

Hi all

Well don't know if anyone else has had or got this problem

My sti front headlights are going cloudy/milky looking so I was wondering if there is anything that can be done about them other than change the lights ??

They are on my 02 bugeye

Polish them, get rid of the milky surface?

I've used a cutting compound on a polishing sponge, used wet, then brought up a shine with a polishing mop, but be careful not to get it too hot by pressing too hard, or the lights melt

There was a thread on here this year about polishing lights, a search may bring it up, but it used a product off the internet and produced a decent clear shine.

I did the covers on my HID driving lights, and they came up well too.

Brasso does a good job, but takes elbow grease....
