    One of my co-workers found this after trying the more expensive snake oil products and found it works well for almost the last year. My brother tried it on his Stratus as well and it made a difference. What is it you ask... baby oil! Wipe it on and wipe it off, done. While it doesn't last forever, it lasts a few months and only takes a few minutes to touch it up. They headlights look much better and work better too. Hopefully it works for you and saves you some $$, if not, nothing really lost.

    I did my mom's ZJ and the headlight I have not replaced on mine the other week and they were better, time will tell on how long it lasts. I will update, but you don't have anything to loose by trying.
