The left headlight had some clouding going on on the upper left side of the lens.

Last night when I was going to head out and get some night shots of the new low beams, I quickly noticed that the left light was casting a narrow/small beam on the ground, which I know is the result
of the bulb not being seated properly (the right side looked ok). After some investigation, I found that both low beam bulbs were in upside down. In my defense, that is how the old ones were, so I
just assumed that they were installed correctly. After flipping the bulbs around, I then found the retainer clips to be loose, so had to remove them and bend some tension back into them.

Then when I was cleaning up, the foggy headlight lenses were bugging me, so I got the 3M polish kit and the Mequiar's plastic polish out. Gave them both 2 good polishes, then 2 coats of wax.











Right side all done.
Left side all done.




Before and after.
