Yes, I should have mentioned as I was nearly complete with sanding I did some wet sanding at the end to get finer results. The wax fills in little imperfections and adds a small amount of UV protection as well, although the lenses usually do not yellow in my experience.

Sure. I removed the lens from the housing and sanded the light blemish areas from 3000-7000 grit. Then I used plastic polish on a rotary polisher to brighten it up and finished with synthetic wax for protection.
The instrument panel face plate pulls out of the rear housing. I fully...

Just put the fast ratio Redhead (they call it quick worm) in my 93 burb tonight. Replaced a old Redhead with 60k on it that was leaking and had play which i wasn't pleased with. Also added an oem cooler and lines and magnefine filter plus fluid flush.
