    TL ; DR
    Headlight restoration kits will only buy you a little bit of time - but since you're rolling a 2010 G3 that's all you may need. ;)
    Best of luck!

    That is a really nice video. I cleaned my headlights in June. This is the cut’n’paste from the post I made about that experience.


    There are about 60-some choices for headlight lens cover cleaners. I made my choice using three(3) metrics; price $14, ease of use w/ no extra tools and only two(2) steps, and name brand, “ArmorAll”.

    HERE’S how it came out:

    I’m thinking they look good. I’ll find out the next time I’m driving at nite.
