I used the toothpaste trick as a quick fix until winter came. Hopefully buying new lights before spring.

I used the meguiars also and was very happy. Thought I would have to by new. But came out great, after I did it very noticable.

I replaced mine awhile ago, but on other cars I have used regular ol' polishing compound. Works great.
