I used Crystal View's kit over two years ago on Wifey's Civic and daughter's Prelude. Both were in terrible condition. Two years later they still look pretty good, especially the Prelude.

This kiy includes a new polyurethane hardcoat to replace the protective coating that you sand/polish off to get your lenses clear again. Without this replacement coating, the lenses will deteriorate in rapid order after you polish them.

MY 135k miles CX7 lenses are starting to deteriorate, so I'm watching.......
A good UV protective wax, like DSX Defender II, also helps protect those expensive lenses. My good friend is the DSX distributor and his Accord's headlight lenses, the same age as my neighbor's, are in MUCH, MUCH better condition. He has had DSX Defender wax on them since he bought the used Accord. One wonders what they would look like had it been used since the car was new.........

http://dsxequiptech.com/dsx-defender-ii/ - full disclosure - if you read the fan application report, the second fan is my shop exhaust fan and the stuff definitely keeps the fan blades clean. I also use Defender II wax on my DD. It lasts FOREVER!! Over one year since the last application, our notorious Florida Love Bugs still wash right off the front of the car.
