click on the link I showed you, there's tons of information about cleaning headlights, and I know for a fact that it works (I've done it to my Camry and my friend's 525i, both with great results).

I would strongly suggest you use EagleOne chrome cleaner.

CrawlingEye - What make of bulb is that and thats good for the corner lamps or parking lights or what ever you want to call them, if so where can they be found?

trdcamry2003 - Im not looking for an entire assembily, Im trying to find a good type of bulb to replace the horribly dull and utterly weak stock corner lamp bulb.
