Im sure many of you have questioned how to un-fog your 95-99 headlights. I dont have a before picture, because who wants to see condensation in a headlight. I started this project with a set of 96 headlights in perfect condition.
With the headlights off the car, first pull off the metal clips that connect the lens to the headlight housing. There should be 7 or so if I remember correctly. Use a heatgun to heat up the glue. This is the hardest part. Take it slow and pull it apart a little at a time, thats my best advice. Youll be tempted to use a screwdriver and pry it away, be careful not to gouge the plastic on the headlight housing.
Okay, now the hard part is done. Now youll take the plastic bezel off from around the inside of the headlight, it snaps off if I remember right. Once you have that off, youll see that only 1 or 2 screws are holding back the orange lens that keeps your corners amber. Feel free to remove those, youll see that the outer lens is already clear, and what youre left with is a perfectly clear corner. Once you have the bezel off, do with it what you will. If you have 95-96 lights, some paint it black to resemble 97-99 lights; some paint it to match their cars paint scheme. I sanded my 96 bezels down to get rid of all the little ribs. Below is a before and after picture.
