Not on any A I know of but every new car has those polycarbonate headlight covers now. I spent an hour on one side of my 2014 Caravans front lights using 1200 and 2000 grit sandpaper getting all the old clearcoat and other crap off the lenses and then polishing them clear. Now what do I use to protect these? Another coat of good clearcoat? That stuff doesnt come off easily and looks yellow and dull. Did I put it on too thick last time I shot these? They look great now but not sure how long they will unprotected. .
 
I don't even coat ones on my car. I just use the Turtle Wax chrome polish with a buffer and repeat as necessary whenever they start to get dull or yellow again. Clear coats are too much of a pain to deal with IMO.
