Default jdm headlights

I ordered some of the one piece jdm headlights for my da. The only problem is that the lenses are really dirty and very yellowish. Is there anyway to clean them if so what is the easiest way to get them apart. Also what do i clean them with.

anyway, go to an auto store like kragen and buy mother's polish. it'll come in a little cylinder and all you have to do is buff your headlights.

I've had bad expierences w/ both of these, not that they didn't damage my headlight, just that they didn't work as they said they would, either way, good luck.

Depending on what the problem with the lights were is why it didn't work. We've cleaned two of my buddies cars' headlights with it. They were completely yellow and rough and it pretty much buffed it out. It's all on preference too i guess.
