Cool head lights cleaned up and exhaust vid of the SVT

Cleaned the head lights up the best I could. Night time driving was horrible the way they were. However on an up note I ordered a new set plus a HID low beam kit! Sadly these stockers are toast. had water in them so long they are starting to mold inside. I also threw in a short exhaust video.

Here is what I started with.




After one head light done





Comparison with head lights on. You can see a big difference





Both done




After clean up.







Now some random shots





All three together

What kit did you use to clean the head lights? I need to do that to my truck. Your exhaust sounds great. Does not sound stock. Here is my Mazda6 3.0 with a Magnaflow CBE. They sound quite similar. Sorry for the shitty recording, it was recorded on a camera, not a video cam.

If you look, his driver side has water inside the bezel.

Does sound similar. As far as I know it's stock, but you never know.

Yeah there is water in both. I'm going try and clean the mold up and try and paint these, but i'm not getting my hopes up.
