Norm, impressive. I presume this is the result of running those Porsche headlamps "day & night" (CA's DRL)?

I've retrofitted little over 50 of those BOSCH headlamps, maybe more dunno, and I've never seen them that toasted lol Ouch! Here in most cases they are simply yellowed with, in most cases, a very small crack...

Regardless, I'll have to take my words back... once yellowed I don't think there is any coming back for those things.

(exterminate the halogens!)
