Clean headlights FTW!
Today I polished my headlights with my new 3" Cornwell air polisher (Was on sale...) and MAN what a difference, they look brand new! I have before and after pics but Verizon is being a dirty skanky ***** and not letting me send picture messages, and my computer doesn't want to read my memory card, so I don't have pics but will upload them when I can..
The question I have is does the center part of the grille light up, or is it just clear to match the headlights? I didn't see any connectors behind it but I swear I've seen a pic of one lit up...

However, some have successfully added lights to them like this. You probably saw this in my locker.  There was also a stock grille that flashed a series of small white lights back and forth inside the grille "knight rider" style. Either one is too ricey. The only grille that I can think of that was ever lit (and badly done) was the Ford Taurus  .

I miss my 94 Taurus (Sable actually). 3.8L, one hell of a grunty machine. Until the headgaskets blew and the trans ate itself. Not the quiet won't-go-into-gear death of a 4EAT, a very distinctive "Hmmm...Second gear looks like it would make a good meal" followed by crunching and grinding and screeching kind of death.
The solid lightbar across the front made the car easy to recognise.

My high school car was a 93 Sable wagon... Luckily it had been babied most of it's life so at 80,000+ miles the tranny was still good, and most of the Hondas in town were very familiar with it's tail lights, it had the 3.8 V6 (I thought it was fast @ the time, but all I had to compare it to was a 73 Datsun pickup with an 1800 and an 87 Subaru STD hatch with a 1600 lol

I modded mine to light up when i first got the car.. when i was young and dumb. I got lots of compliments on it. There is a pic in my locker. I replaced it with a 97 grille painted. It is sitting in a box in my garage now.
