I have the above car.

The head lights are original and are the typical yellow dis-coloration. I have heard that the polishing kit works marginally. I have seen the lenses for sale on the internet. How difficult is it to change them? I have a great mechanic and I may just have him do it. The last time that I had it inspected, the mechanic said that they barely passed and will probably not pass the inspection next year.

I have replaced the lenses of the turn signals, but not the turn signals themselves.

I have replaced the tails lights in a few occasions. The are starting to crack and I assume they will be taking on water in the near future.

The car has 140K miles on it and I plan to keep it for at least 10 more years.

I really like the euro-head lights in appearance and also they seem more durable than the plastic ones because they are glass. What are the pros-and-cons of plastic versus glass?

I am concerned that replacing the above will cause the tail light warning signal on the dash board to light up.

What are you guys' thoughts on the above?
