3rd Generation So I restored my headlights...

With that 3M Headlight Restoration kit. They look a load clearer now, but there's still a little yellow in there. Should I continue sanding, or are the headlights too old?
It's a 1993.

You might be able to continue sanding, but don't sand too much off.
Is there a 3M customer support ph#? Ask them how much you can sand without damaging the lens. Better to get info from the makers themselves about how well their kit can remove deep yellowing.

Alright, no special pics yet. Can't get my car out of the driveway since my dad's van is in the way.
I think the headlights are actually pretty clear. Yesterday they looked a little yellow, but today they look better. *Shrugs*

Since the last time I updated, I've tinted the windows (20% rear 35% front)
I purchased black floor mats, and new wheel covers. I'm working on getting a dash cover, seat covers, and a new door handle.
