How can I clean the headlamps on my Jaguar XK8?
The glass on the headlights of my Jaguar XK8 are becoming misty, not bright and clear as they should be. I'd be reluctant to replace them - they are only sold as a complete unit at, I believe, £200. Is there any cleaning product I can use to restore them?

There are home remedies for cleaning fogged headlamp plastic (it is usually plastic, not glass), which include polishing with toothpaste. The results aren't as good as the proper kits on the market though: Armor All Headlight Restoration Wipes can be done by hand and come recommended, but for more intensive jobs you'll need a machine polisher and a restoration kit, such as Autoglym's.
