Hello.

I've made a search, but all the topics I find are about regulating headlights.

I need to clean the inside of my Headlights, but before I make a mess I wanna be sure to be doing it right.

Can someone point me out to a thread about this topic, or give me directions on how to do it?

Many thanks.
 
Just to make my question a bit more specific.

What I wanna clean is the inside of the outside glass. I don't want to mess around with the reflector.

Is it a dull light? get a new bulb

Hello. I think the problem is inside the glass. As you can see in the picture the passenger headlight isn't clear. I just want to clean that inside without messing around too much.

People have told me that perhaps I need to cut the sealant, but I thought the headlight could be two separate parts as I haven't seen one out yet.
 
I can repair the wobbly reflectors on.
Afraid not! the reason I removed mine was to try fix them but there is no way at all! (n)
you need something thin but stiff. I used an old butter knife. I need to push it down into the grove untill you can catch the edge of the glass. Then you press down on it to leaver it up. dont put lots of force on it to chip the glass. if you just hold the pressure on it you will hear a tearing sound that gets louder (y)
 
I had wobbly reflectors and I prised off the glass parts and put a dab of clear silicone sealent on each of the retaining lugs. Which had broken and allowed the reflector to move around. Sweet as a doozy!
