Not stocked at SCA either, which is odd. The headlight polish is about $30, plus six sheets of wet and dry, so maybe yeah $55 and not $75. $75 was a guess.

Try your local panel beater/paint supplier?
Good idea, I will try Spectrum as they are near work and open just before 8.00. They don't sell the one Fu posted but they should have something.

Kinda kicking myself now. In under 25 mins I have wet sanded the problem headlight housing and polished it up with the rotary. If I spend another 10 mins on it with the mothers headlight polish it would be even better. I was going to wait until tonight to buy the housings too, but I thought bugger it, just get them. I thought it was going to be too hard to get them good, now I find out it's not hard like I thought.

Keep them as spares and give them a good go off the car.

I could possibly go in to the store and order it but they charge $15 freight and it would mean two, 1hr round trips to Town on a weekend..... Repco I rarely go to, especially now they reduced their opening hours. Our Repco store sucks.
