IMO Opti-Lens is the best, longest lasting headlight protectant in the market.

The Cobalt lights suck because they fog up from the inside and that's where the residue is.

Are you positive it's hazed on the inside? I've never came across any lights with damage on the inside even though they look like it. I'd still give them a polish if I were you.

Sorry meant ridiculously "quick" amount of time lol. I've never done them but that seems like a pretty quick job.

Lol I know what you meant. It took me 45 min when I did my first set but now it's like clockwork.

He said he has his own mechanic to work on the cars so I guess the car will continue to have glow lights on it ^

Well he can't say that he wasn't informed of the hazy lights. This is all on him if an employee gets in an accident due to bad lighting. Stay safe.

One way to fix them and have them last long is to throw on some clear coat on them. Did it on my brothers headlights and haven't got jazzy since then. More than a year and a half since then and still look like new. The only thing is you have to sand them a little. But after that they will look like new
