Cleaning the Fog Light Lenses
When my fog lights are on the lenses look filthy. I have cleaned and even used a clay bar on the outside to make them look clean, but it appears the dirt, etc... is on the inside of the lense. Is that even possible? If so, is there a way to get to the backside of the lense or is replacement my only option?
BTW, my headlight lenses are spotless and clear as day one, so I don't think it is pitting etc, from road debris.

Mine were very pitted (sandblasted is more like it). I used a lens restoring kit, and they came very nice.
I doubt if it's the inside that is dirty, as it is a sealed unit.
