    Yup.
    Plastic-X by Meguires. Works awesome to get rid of the cloudy/yellownesh that comes with daily driving. I tried it on my buddies neon (cause, like you, one headlight was old; the other new) and now they both look the same!

          Ouch ... don't remind me, the group buy on the "other" board got put on hold due to litigation against APC. There's got to be another way to get e-spec's here for 1st gens without losing and arm and leg over it

                yeah if you can afford it and you can get around customs , then go for it . Otherwise your next option may be a set of fog lights,if you can't see anything.

                  Ok so let me get this straight. If you are going to get a new pair of headlights you should get e-spec??? But the thing about it is..that you have to import them yourself. So then how do you go about importing them yourself??? Also they are going to run you about 200 bucks??? are the these the number for the e spec lights:

                  BC5D-51-030A right lamp
                  BC5D-51-040A left lamp

                  I mean I'm like asylum24 ...200 is a lot money just from lights. BUt I haven't seen them yet!!! If anyone can post a pic of them!!!


                  K Dawg ONE:

                  Now if you use the Plasitic X...do you have to take the lens off or what???
                  DO WHAT YOU DO!!!

                    Yeah I feal you on the 200 being a lot of cash. Worse when it's september and school is about to start and you have to many obligations. But if you have the money go for it . At least we have the part numbers and we can order then whenever is convienent. Maybe mazdaformance.com can get them ....

                        No, you dont have to take the lights aprt to use the plastic-x...you just 'polish' the OUTSIDE of the lights with them...good as new!

                            I couldn't find anything that says plastic x I've found something that was called scatch x...that does remove oxidation. But I don't know if that is it.

                              Guys that is ALL BS. IM sorry but you can adjust the way you headlights point. Im sorry but its that simple. We could make A-spec lights point the wrong way just as we can make J-spec point the right way.. Thats all BS sorry get the jspec
