Default Cleaning ur headlights

Around the edges of my corner heads there looks like some build-up of some kind, its clear, but it looks kinda fuzzy and stuff.

Was wondering how I should clean it... With soap & hot water? Maybe some heavy cleaner like lime-away?

I really dont have problems with mine but when I clean my car up real good I put some Meguiar's Clear Plastic Polish on them. Maybe thats why I dont have any problems?

I found it at Advance Auto Parts, in the boat section oddly enough. You can probably eve use car wax on them.

Damn, nice ride bassmint.

I'm going to have to take my heads completely off to clean them, kinda like taking the keys off your keyboard and cleaning them.

Mine arent looking yellowish tho, it just looks like crust build up, lol...
