X3, use that, a rag, and some elbow grease. It should shine them up, but if they are badly fogged up or dirty, you should wetsand, buff, then polish. How bad are they?

Yup, I got it at autozone, if they don't have meguires, you can get mothers metal polish. Some people even say it works slightly better because it is a metal polisher, which is more abrasive.
