Some cars seem to worse than others with UV damage on headlights though. The VE Commodores seem to be pretty good from what I’ve seen and experienced.

The Japanese marques seemed to be the worst for it (Subaru and Mitsubishi specifically) from what I’ve noticed.
I agree. Have never been asked to polish any Commodore headlights. Only Holden's I've done were Astra's.
Done plenty of Toyota's and a few Mazda's, which have crazing starting on the insides of the polycarbonate lenses....

I've seen quite a few VEs that needed a polish. The bloke I sold my old ones to were milky as and although mine needed a polish his were 20 times worse. Agree Astras were pitiful for it. As are the step daughters on her Tiida.

When I polished mine I looked for it but no one seems to sell it any more.
Yep, when I looked no one had it not even Spares Box. Theres another brand but I was looking for Duplicolor one as it was tried and tested with good results by @Fu Manchu .
