That is a good deal. Might pick one up just for future use.

Not a bad deal, but if you have a random buffer, cleaner wax or some plastic scratch remover, a couple of foam or micro fiber cloth bonnets for the buffer... you can do the same thing. Toothpaste will also work very well! It will leave your headlights bright, fresh and should even protect them from cavities and tartar build-up. Keeping the light lens polished will help diminish the amount of light that is scattered by a bunch of pits and scratches on the surface. You can especially see the results in thick fog or heavy snow. Scattered or diffracted light is deffinitely not a good driving aid in poor visibility.

Well free to ship if you live in the US. At $18.98US to ship via UPS, not to mention the nearly $30CAN brokerage charges to clear it through the border, I may as well source it out in Canada.

I can't solve all of your problems with the Canadian Govt. Somehow I think you still come out ahead not having to deal with the U.S. problems and issues. If Canada were south of the U.S. instead of North I'd move there in a heartbeat.The U.S. tries to be all things to all the people of the world and of course we have to pay for that.

Your Camray headlight pictures show what an improvement it makes. Vibolista is right it is better quality light with clean lenses.A few months ago I used a kit from Crystal View Chemicals that cost $25.00 at AutoZone. It worked well on my 2004 Vibe but yours is less expensive. I've never tried toothpaste. We say the car had her cataracts removed and can see clearly now.

I used a $17 or so kit from Sylvania today. Was a pretty amazing improvement. (Using links because the pictures are huge)Before:http://i734.photobucket.com/al...1.jpgh ... l...0.jpgI missed a couple of spots but didn't see until the clear coat had been curing for like an hour...I don't know if I can maybe go over those spots with the clear coat again? Also, please ignore the little dent.
