Default cloudy headlight lenses?

I dont know if the 3g eclipse have this problem, but my stratus seems to share every other problem, so i figured that i would ask...

im noticing that my headlight lenses are beginning to get that very faint "haze" on the outside...the plastic seems rough to the touch. does anyone know of a cure for this? perhaps a polish or something?

There is a cream polish that brings back the headlights to life, im not sure where do they sell it though cuz its not a brand per se, its just a polish cream they sell where you get paint supplies (auto of course). The reason for that is that the headlights have a clearcoat on them for long life, of course if you live somewhere where the sun is killer (like here) you will get them hazy or yellowish

I use Meguiars Scratch X plastic polish. Since you say that it's faint, I recommend that myself. That is a really fine grit of wetsanding in a bottle right there.
