lensrenew.com is your friend. I tried to sand, wax, polish mine when they started to turn the hazy yellow and none of them worked.

I used that how-to on my old v6 and cobra lights, both times they turned out looking like new.

Mothers Plastic Polish and a PowerBall Mini worked for me.

In my experience wet sanding,polishing and time are the best way. I have resotored many headlights this way

Here is how I restore headlights.
1. Use a solvent like Meguiars Body solvent to clean them
2. Claybar the lenses
3. Use an abrasive swirl remover like SSR
4. Polish them with a good cleaner polish like Klasse AIO
5. Maintain with Plexus
Sounds like a lot of work but it only takes 15min per light. Here are some Mustang lights I did. They will not re-yellw if you simply maintain every car wash with Plexus.
