TX headlights dirty on the inside

hey guys i recently picked a VR 8 at good price of 5500 with only 15k on new engine, everything on the car is flawless except for the bumpers and hood which in getting repainted by a friend. the headlights were also dirty so i had cleaned it with toothpaste and it looks good on the outside but there seems to be dirt/ water spots on the inside. any ideas on how to clean that and what to clean it with?

This is a common issue.
search in the "Show and Shine" sub-forum. It's been discussed in detail, there.

You could try to disassemble it, but its glued. There is a process of baking, but you have to know what your doing. You may just have to buy a new or used ones that are clean.
