Anyone know where I can find some for a reasonable price?

Looking for some very clear headlights, as mine have 'fogged' up over time.

Not sure who's got a decent set in stock....

Have you given them a polish on the outside doggy? You may be surprised at the outcome...

Ask Joe for an essay on how to polish headlights. He wrote me one after one of his scored a small scratch when we installed them.

PlastX or similar stuff will clear it up.

metal polish should work well too.

are these solutions just quick fix or long lasting?

Quick fix, but will last for months... Same thing happened to my snoarer and polishing them up worked a treat.

Cheers guys but will not be polishing them as one is actually cracked, always has been.

Just chasing new headlights, at non-nissan prices.

unsure how crackpipe pricing is, but ebay may offer love. Don't know if theres a difference between GTS and GTR headlights.
