The headlight covers have become opaque due to age. Where might I find replacements (aftermarket) or would I be better to go OEM ? Thanks for your help.

Can the existing lenses be polished? Maybe the opacity is just in the
surface.

There are various products available at auto parts stores to polish plastic.
I have never used them so I do not know whether they work or not, but I
suspect that their effectiveness depends on how badly damaged the covers
are.

You know, I had the same problem and kept trying to polish the outside
of the covers, which helped a little but not a lot. I think the inside
also needs to be cleaned and/or polished, though I never tried it. I'd
be interested in the outcome, though.
