Re: Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights
 

I bought some stuff at the local parts store that says it guarantees to
remove the yellowing on headlights. I can't recall the name of the stuff and
I haven't tried it yet but will post up when I try it...
You would think with todays technology that they could make them to avoid
this. Kind of like the TJ flairs fading within the first year... it's a Jeep
thing I don't understand...

Re: Jeep Grand Cherokee headlights
 

Low Bid.

They only have to last the length of the warranty. To the OEM suppliers a
win win situation is their part lasts through the warranty period and fails
the following day.
