    today i was fooling around with my dad`s f-150, and i was wondering, do you guys ever take the time to detail your headlights or taillights?? if so, what products do you like to use?

    I use Blue Magic Plastic & Plexiglass Polish once a month. I`ve gotten some fairly nasty scratches out with it by hand.

    You should be able to buy it locally; I got it at Pep Boys for like $3 or $4. The Blue Magic Metal Polish is pretty good too; some people use the two together.

    I like to use Meguiar`s PlastX on mine. I also use it on the clear plastic on the dashboard (guage covering) and radio display.
