Remove them and polish them - common sense

Mothers plastic polish worked nice on my plastic guage lenses so i guess it would do the trick for the lights also. I heard their alum. polish works too if you have that around.

I plan on buying a new set for $40 LMAO!

Like AutoRoc said, I had some aluminum wheel polish laying around. That is what I used. First I tried by hand. When that didn't turn out as expected, I used my Dremel. They look like glass now!
