have a 2001 GT. Does anybody know how to restore my headlights? They have frosted with age and/or weather. They look like they have been sandblasted. I have tried to polish it out, but its just too deep. Is this something covered under warranty? Just wondering if somebody has encountered this and knows how to fix it before I go spend $$$$$$$$ replacing the lenses.

Just came home from bitching out the dealer...... He said he would speak to the Ford rep (Canada) Probably nothing will happen, but atleast they know we are bitching about this. Everybody go in and bitch at there local dealer and maybe something will get done. This is obviously a problem seeing as somebody said they had the same problem on a 93. BITCH people BITCH. Don't threaten them, just say that you were wondering if Ford would stand behind their product.

 

Ive got the same problem. Ive tryied everything. So i was just going to get new ones of e-bay.

 

Yeah getting new ones is really the only way to go. I have the exact same problem

 

I have the same problem too. I think most Fords have that problem. My old 91 taurus did the same thing. A few years ago I saw a product that restores the lenses to like new. I can't remember what's it's call though. I'll have to do some research.

 

My wife's van had the same issue. I bought the Permatex lens restore kit and it did a good job, even after 7 years of neglect. It has 4 grades of wet sandpaper, polish, and a polishing cloth. It's like $12 or so. Takes some elbow grease, but does seem to work.

After all that work, we traded it in for a 2007 sport track with the 3V 4.6. It's a sweet ride.

 

I got that mothers ball and my 18v Dewalt drill and it worked like a champ on momma's acura

 

try the mr clean magic erasers, those thigns are the most amazing product ive used on any and everything, my friend used em on his 94 gt tail lights and they did a pretty good job......and i cleaned the interior of my dads 65 mustang leatehr interior that has prob never ever been cleaned and it made a huge difference

 

I tried a lapping compund ane adrill, it only maede it worse. Thanx for the imput though. I think I'll go bitch out the dealership. In the meantimethough as a quick fix, I used that tinted car waz. It makes it not as noticalbe.

 

Ive tryed everthing. There dead. Good excuss to get new ones. yaaaa.

 

they put the 4.6 in the new sport tracs?? that rocks... lol my moms 01 has the 4.0 V6 lol
