All About Headlight Maintenance - Plandome Service Center

Many car drivers don't often think about their vehicle's headlights unless they notice that one or both have stopped working completely. You may have walked up to your vehicle and noticed how cloudy looking your headlights have become. Cloudy and yellowing headlights is a common thing that happens over time due to sun damage. While it is a common occurrence, this cloudiness and yellowing can actually decrease the effectiveness of your headlights. 

A headlight restoration will clean your headlight lenses and ensure proper visibility. This process usually includes sanding down the headlights and waxing them. If the lenses are in really bad shape, they may need to be replaced for optimal performance. 

Very dim headlights can be an indication that you need to replace the actual headlight bulbs. Bulbs will naturally dim over time and are usually recommended to be replaced every couple of years. It's also important to check the alignment of your bulbs to be sure that they are pointing in the right direction.
