my dart has turning indicators on fenders but they have a dull white look to on :read2:them i was told to use alcohol but even after 8 beers i still see it just joking i wiped the plastic lenses with rubbing alcohol with q tip but still appeared hazy any ideas:munky2:if they cant be cleaned where will i find them thanks
 
I suppose it is just like the new plastic headlight lenses and they get oxidized. I would buff them out with a little rubbing compound with a medium to fine grit in it
 
X2 - toothpase, works just as good as plastic polish, smells "minty", too!
 
If no luck with just polish.Go sand paper to polish. Here are progressive pics of 320 grit to 600 grit dry then 800grit to 1200 grit wet then polish(toothpaste)

I've also heard oven cleaner recommended for things like plastic lenses, but I've never tried it myself, so.. if these guys say toothpaste, I'd go with toothpaste.
