Try wet sanding(800 grit) them then buffing it out. That clears up the yellowing effect they get.

Will this work on taillights as well?

someone told me put powersteering fluid on a rag and wipe the headlight

You can test it on a small area on the corner

I dont have the brandname for it, but Eastwoods sells a cleaner/polish that is specifically made for headlight/taillight lenses, Might pay tp check them out. As long as the haze is only on the outside.... If you have a hazey light on the inside, you might have a moisture problem.
Whatever you do Do Not Use Simple Green (or similar product) or you will etch the surface....
good luck

As an intermittent solution, I put Mother's California Gold Wax (Paste) on the headlight and it brings back a little more shine and takes off some of the yellow-ish haze effect.

Yes sand them down then polish up the lenses use some Mother's w/ the red label/white can. They will be ruby red like a mofo when youre done.
