Older Vehicle Owners
Most cars 5+ years old have oxidized polycarbonate lenses from UV exposure. Restoration is a fraction of the cost of replacing housings — and looks just as good. Brings 2015-era cars back to brand-new shine.
Honest Mobile Car Detailing
Restore cloudy, yellowed, oxidized headlights to factory clarity — at your home, condo, or office. Better night vision on the 401, DVP, and Gardiner, instant curb-appeal boost, and a smart cheap upgrade for any older vehicle. We come to you across Toronto, Markham, Vaughan, Scarborough, and the GTA.
If your headlights have turned yellow, hazy, or cloudy — you're losing 50–70% of light output and putting yourself at risk during night drives.
Most cars 5+ years old have oxidized polycarbonate lenses from UV exposure. Restoration is a fraction of the cost of replacing housings — and looks just as good. Brings 2015-era cars back to brand-new shine.
Foggy headlights cut your night visibility by more than half. Restoring them is a safety upgrade — clearer beams on the 401, DVP, Gardiner, and 407. Lower risk of accidents in dark or wet conditions.
Cloudy headlights signal 'neglected vehicle' to buyers and dealers — they'll lowball you by hundreds. $80 restoration adds $200–$500 to perceived value. Best ROI in pre-sale detailing, period.
Real headlight restoration is wet sanding plus UV sealant — not a quick polish that yellows again in a month. Our process lasts 6+ months minimum.
We assess oxidation severity and confirm restoration is the right call vs. lens replacement.
Tape protects surrounding paint, trim, and clips during the sanding process.
Progressively finer grits (typically 800 → 1500 → 2000 → 3000) remove oxidized polycarbonate.
Machine polish brings the lens back to clear, restoring optical clarity that sanding alone leaves hazy.
Removes polishing oils so the UV sealant bonds properly. Skipping this step is why most cheap restorations fail.
Professional-grade UV ceramic sealant locks in the result — without this, lenses re-yellow within 2–3 months.
Sealant cures fully before we leave. We verify both lenses match in clarity under bright light.
Whole process takes about 60 minutes per vehicle. Done at your home or condo, no need to drive anywhere.
Tell us your vehicle make/model and location. $80/pair flat for most vehicles.
Quick reply within an hour. We schedule for whenever works.
On time with sanding tools, polisher, UV sealant, and all materials.
Mask, sand, polish, seal — about 30 min per side, 60 min total.
Lenses are clear. You can drive immediately. Sealant fully cures within 24 hours.
Flat $80 for both headlights restored. No upsells, no surprise add-ons. If we can't restore your lenses (rare — usually only if cracked internally), we tell you upfront before charging anything.
$80 covers both headlights, fully restored. Larger vehicles with massive headlight assemblies (full-size SUVs, trucks) may add $10–$20 — we'll confirm based on your vehicle. Often booked alongside exterior wash & wax for a complete front-end refresh.
According to AAA research, vehicles with deteriorated headlights produce only 22% of the light output compared to brand new lenses. That's nearly an 80% reduction in illumination — exactly when you need it most: night driving on dark Ontario roads, in rain, or in winter snow.
Headlight oxidation happens because polycarbonate plastic degrades under UV exposure from the sun. Most cars start showing visible yellowing or hazing after 3–5 years. Brand new replacement headlight assemblies often cost $500–$2,000 per pair. Restoration is a tenth of that cost with virtually identical visual results.
And the safety case is real: clearer headlights mean better night vision on the 401, DVP, Gardiner, and 407 — better reaction time, better awareness of pedestrians and cyclists, lower risk of accidents. Cheapest safety upgrade you can buy for an older vehicle.

Common questions about mobile headlight restoration in Toronto & the GTA.
Our headlight restoration is a flat $80 for both headlights, fully restored — that's it. Larger vehicles like full-size SUVs and trucks may add $10–$20 if the assemblies are oversized. No hidden fees — we confirm upfront.
With our UV-resistant ceramic sealant, results last 6+ months minimum, often 12–18 months depending on UV exposure. Most cheap restorations re-yellow within 2–3 months because they skip the UV sealant step or use low-quality wax-based sealants. Park in shade or a garage when possible to extend the result.
About 60 minutes for a standard pair of headlights. Larger or particularly oxidized lenses might take up to 90 minutes. We work at your home, condo garage, or office — no need to drive anywhere.
Heavily yellowed lenses (even ones that look beyond saving) almost always restore beautifully — the oxidation is on the outer surface. However, if the lens is cracked, has internal moisture damage, or the reflective coating inside is failing, restoration won't fix those issues. We honestly assess on arrival.
Far cheaper. New OEM headlight assemblies typically cost $300–$2,000 per side, plus labor. Aftermarket assemblies are cheaper but rarely match factory fit. At $80 per pair, our restoration is one-tenth or less the cost of replacement — and the visual result is essentially identical.
Significantly. AAA research shows oxidized headlights produce only 22% of the light output of new lenses. Restoring recovers most of that loss — meaning clearer vision on dark roads, better reaction time, and lower risk during night drives. One of the cheapest safety upgrades you can make.
