Lets see how it goes
, hopefully I will started tomorrow morning, if my wife & kids allow me. Wish me luck!
PS I still have doubts with the procedure for the second "baking"; after the sealing application: 10 min w/o pre-heating again or after pre-H? And also, can't decide if I leave it cleared only or go for the blacked, what do you think guys?

How can I remove this? I though it was condesation on the inside, but it is on the outside. I need to re-sealed both headlights (fogging), but I want to deal with this also.
The only good thing was the LEDs & resistors installation:

Yep, I thought about JnC later, but it was a good experience. I will removed the lights, again, wet-sand it, re-sealed, and wait. I also plan to buy new 9006 to replace old fogs in the process. I don't want to give up!

Yes they were. I thought it was on the inside, nooby mistake.
'Boricua' i wanna do thi myself too but im kinda scared to do this myself cause i dont want to mess em up. i might let JnC do them for me.

From your first pics of before it looks like they were already faded before clearing...

i have a little write up about how i did mine. I had a blast doing it also. Learn new stuff all time! To clear your lights up, i would take them apart again, and clean the inside with some acetone, i believe its called. and then wet sand it. hopefully the wet sanding goes good! let me know if you need any tips which im sure you already know what your doing.

PS Gracias for the headlights comment, but they should look really clean in a week or two, I hope.
