Wouldnt bother paying for the kits, i done mine with 400 grit, 800, 1500 and then 2000 then polished them up with tcut and they came up like new, | |

T-cut on a brilo pad,t-cut on a cloth and then a good polish has worked for me on a few cars that have failed the mot on yellowed lenses. | |

3m one worked well on my wife's zafira recently, it had quite heavy scratches and some lighter marks. The only thing I would say is wrong with it is there is a pretty big gap between the medium grade and fine grade sanding pads (800 to 3000 I think). I think I would have got even better results if I used 1500 grit in between as you can still see some fine sanding marks if you look close enough | |

I can't recommend a specific kit especially for headlights, but a couple of lads on here have used toothpaste as a cutting agent with some elbow grease and have got some pretty good results. Maybe try that first! | |
