<VV> headlight bits and pieces

[Chris & Bill Strickland]

a)  I like the Meguiar's #17 Cleaner & #10 Polish (maybe I have the 
numbers backwards) for cleaning the plastic lenses -- works good on 
plastic side curtains and rear convertible windows too, either by hand 
or power

b)  Some (not all) folks have a real problem with the scatter of the 
short wave length blue lights -- meaning oncoming traffic -- it like 
blinds them even on low beam, and there is also some question about the 
scatter shortening the visible distance -- there is a website with info 
on this out there "somewhere"

c)  melted connectors can frequently be traced back to high resistance 
at the contacts, caused by corrosion -- remember the back of the 
headlight is generally in an open environment -- solder the wires and 
coat the contacts

that's all folks,
