Welcome to all owners of Toyota Fortuner [continued]

Mix some baking soda and "white" toothpaste, not the colored or gel ones. Wet the headlight then apply. Use a toothbrush to scrub or your fingers to rub. It took me 30 minutes for it to come off, although not 100%. Rinse with water. You can repeat again if necessary. Just put sealant on your headlight after the final scrubbing.

^This hack or the 1 below....



Once they've been touched, they'll never stay pre-defloration for long. Headlamp PPF can serve as chastity belt on virgins before they happen or right after the rubbing.[emoji4]

The yellow I've seen is on the outer. A combo of fine scratches from nonOCD washes(I prefer to use different mitts/Mfiber cloths for the body & lenses) & UV oxidation. Both will accelerate grime & contaminant buildup. Solar & lamp heat are catalysts for baking the buildup to a good cure onto them plastic lenses.
I miss the good ol' glass-lenses. They never age.
