I know about that method but I'd rather have them proffesionally cleane'd, and I suck at baking... I burn everything

i have done 3 or 4 ek's, a 94 bmw 318 and on the teg i have now .it might not be the ''professional'' way but it works great. get some 2000 grit sand paper and wet sand them about 10 or 15 min each side then get this stuff its like 2 bucks at discount called plastic-x plastic polish and use that after you dry them off from wet sanding. like i said might not be ''professional'' but i have never had a problem and works great also very cheap to do and doesnt take much time at all

hmm... those sound like great ideas, I just didn't feel comfortable taking apart my headlights or throwing them in the oven
