they were pretty horrendous, so I started with 1000 grit sand paper, then a polishing compound, then a generic headlight restoring paste

note, one should ensure their mount is solid prior to attempting a time lapse

but I got it right for the other side, just worse lighting

I love this generation of Rav 4.

Looks much better!

Just got the 3M kit to resurface the headlights on my fiancee’s cooper S. How dead was your arm afterward?

truly not bad. that second video was a frame taken a second, played back at 10 frames a second. with a bit if walking around to get the right gear together, etc. I think you can be done in about 30-45 minutes total work

You got some sort of UV protectant on so it doesn’t just happen again right?

Ahahahaha, the first video was funny.

The second one was at a worse FPS, but it’s easier to use that to learn how to do this.

I should do it, I used the “toothpaste method” on my ML, but it did not work.

Based on the headline I expected a "NSFW" tag...
