My 06 XC70 lenses suck...they are super cloudy. I tried to polish them, got mediocre results. I cannot afford Volvo replacements. Are there any aftermarket lenses that will give me satisfactory results? I would like to be able to see at night!!!.

Try a detail shop. They might charge $50 cash, but that is cheaper than looking for replacements made in China. For $200, a detailer might do the entire car?

I have polished headlight lens with commercial products with success. If the lens are very bad use 1500 or 2000 grit paper to clean before using the polish. Do not expect fast results - this takes some time and work.

My daughter had it done on her Volvo at Costco - I think it was around $40. - Dave
