It's not just the outside, which is the easy part. It's also the inside of the lens which is susceptible to discoloration from moisture/humidity and heat. I'm sure we've all seen our lenses fog up. I'm pretty diligent about using Plexus on the outside but I still see some greening of the greyish upper eyelid.

Very true. In fact when disassembled you can rub a finger inside and that fog goes off. Looks as if there is very little condensation building up inside... at least just enough to create this annoying fog sometime.

Some of you have seen how easy it is to pry those headlight open... you can quickly get a set of those old headlight back to life in a Sunday afternoon.

(wash inside with lens cleaning fabric & hot distilled water, comes back to factory default!)
