Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights
 

I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the problem with the headlights is that
there is some kind of film on them and I do NOT know what it is or how to get
it off. When I get them wet they look like they are gonna be ok but a second
later when they dry, it is that same old thick film on them and cannot hardly
see out of them. Anyone else have this problem or know of anything I could
use to try to clean them? Thanks!

Re: Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights
 

If they're glass, try a Scotchbrite pad.

If they're plastic, get some Brasso or Meguiars plastic polish.

Re: Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights
 

Did you buy the car new? There are thick films made by 3-M that go
over the glass to protect from flying rocks. Maybe someone put that
on?

This is a wide------ problem not limited to Jeep. Most cars with the newer
plastic headlights suffer from it, and after a few years, night vision is
severely compromised. The problem appears to be a change in the plastic
caused by sunlight.

I have a 1999 Grand Cherokee and after trying all sorts of cleaners on the
lenses, I gave up and bought new ones to the tune of $600. Junkyards had
some Grand Cherokees with the right headlights, but they were just as opaque
as mine.

After I replaced the headlight assemblies, I shattered one of the old ones
(not easy!) and looked at the plastic lens from the edge. It was opaque all
the way through.

Remember when you could buy a new glass headlight for about $5?

I makes me wonder about the wisdom of our manufacturers, ten bucks
will buy my Bronco a new crystal clear sealed headlight.

It's all about looking good coming off the assembly line. This all has me

Hi Earle,
Does Spain use these very weak yellow headlights like france? I
enjoyed being the ugly American driving my '58 Ford with four very
bright sealed beams through Paris. :-)

Re: Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights
 

When I used to work in a body shop, whenever someone came in with the
plastic lenses, I'd buff them with the paint buffer and some compound, most
of the time it would clear them up.

What kind of polishing compound did you use? Foam or lambswool pad?

Re: Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights
 

Haven't seen anything like that. I have seen quite a few of these though.

http://www.mentovai.com/photo/200203...03-10-017.html

I saw a Ford Excursion last month. There are even motor homes. I think
that the most annoying thing, are the motor scooters, that sound like a
chain saw in the middle of the night. I could do without that. There may
be more Jeep Grand Cherokees over here, than in the States. Not all of them
are diesel, either. With gasoline over $1.50 a liter, how does that work?

I haven't driven much since I came here. I did drive from Madrid to the
Basque Country, when I first came. I think now, that one of the reasons I
came here, besides the Spanish courses, are the trains. You can take a
train, almost anywhere. My son in law, who learned to drive in France, says
that he is afraid to drive in the cities here. I have tried it, and I
agree. I think that once I get done with school, I am going to rent a car,
and drive to Galicia or maybe Portugal. The worst part is the exchange
rate. When my daughter was here, a Euro was worth about $0.80. Now it's at
$1.25. On the bright side, this means that you don't see many American
tourists.

According to my headlight post mortem, the compound I buffed with just
removed the outer bit of opaque plastic. At first, it's only opaque on the
outside surface. Later, the UV light reaches deeper and you are outta luck.

Hi Earle,
Thanks for filling me in. I still haven't figured out what you're
doing, must be a class in something. I would consider it a prison

Hi Bill,
If you remember the seventies, you weren't really there. -Robin
Williams
I drank the Holland beer Heineken while I was, more closely
resemble Hams the beer refreshing.
The fraus didn't take showers nor shaved, I couldn't wait to get
back to my California Surfer Chicks.
