Foggy Inner Lamp Lens-'90-964-C4
Any one here know how to remedy this situation? Is it possible to remove the lens
from the housing(Although I don't think so.) I thought I saw a Pictorial/Tutorial here some time ago about someone who made up some type of mild abrasive/detergent solution and swished it around in some fashion inside the lens housing, rinsed and dried it and it looked Great. Any help would be Greatly appreciated! Here are a few pics of what I got...     [IMG]http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w119/fleetline51 /porscheheadlamp003.jpg[/IMG]  Thanks Folks! Tony

While its theoretically possible to remove the lens its almost certain that it will crack when you do I cleaned mine by putting denatured alcohol in it , sloshing it around, pouring it out and letting it dry, worked like a champ...you may need to do it a few times you dont want to use anything abrasive or a soap that would leave a residue |

Thanks Much for the tip, but it didn't work for Me. I tried what You described several times and even let it sit for ten minutes before draining and filling again, then repeating the process , etc. Hopefully someone will come up with the original thread that I was referring to. I know I'm not the only one with a "Cyclops" 964! lol Thanks Again All! Tony

Thank You! I took some 20% volume hydrogen peroxide and swashed it around inside the lens, then emptied it and rinsed with denatured alcohol. Looks 100 % better! I realized the fogginess was caused by ozone given off inside the housing and knew that the peroxide would remove the fogginess...will post some pics later...gotta' go make some $$$ ! lol Thanks Again! Tony

Here are a couple of pics to illustrate the before and after conditions...
The "Before" ...   And the "After" ...   Here it is installed back in the C4 after proper cleaning...  And a shot of both for comparison...  All in all ,I'm very pleased with the end results. Thanks again to all that chimed in on this thread! Best Regards, Tony
