I've updated the pictures I posted originally because I've had to changed where they were hosted. So I also added a couple more photos. If anyone is interested the thread is here.

i suppose the easiest way would be to polish them usin the products in this link,, do one side first and stand back see if its come up any.. if they were tinted you may have to use paint remover or the like, but be careful if you do..

Flynn's lights look the biz bet he has a good wa**ing arm after all that polishing!.
I tryed some (Cif power cream)on them earlier and it made a huge difference a trip to Tesco was a good bet.But its raining again so it will have to wait.
How do i split the head light to clean the inside ???

Put them in an oven on very low heat or use a hair-dryer. Good luck getting them sealed properly when you put them back together though.

There are guides for doing this though: Cleaning Headlights - mkiv.com
