Headlight restoration

With as nice as the weather has been recently (relative to how it's been for the past 4 months), I've been doing a lot more with my car. Last weekend I changed the rear brake pads. This weekend, I cleaned the interior and used the Mother's headlight restoration kit to take the yellow out of my headlights (or at least that was the sales pitch from the commercials). I took pictures before and after, so I could see how well it worked. Here's the result.

It is an improvement, but maybe not as drastic as I hoped. Granted, in all it took me 30 minutes, so it's not bad for such little effort. I should be able to improve them more, but I need to wait for my cordless drill battery to recharge, then convince myself that it would be worth the effort.

Next weekend's car task: replace the exhaust manifold gasket. Maybe I'll get an aftermarket uppipe while I'm at it, haven't decided yet...more research required.
