K HI GUYS, SO WITH THE HEADLIGHTS I HAVE A 2004 530I AND MY HEADLIGHTS LENS ARE LOOKING FOGGY AND YELLOW, I KNOW THAT THEY SELL REPAIR KITS FOR THIS BUT I HEARD THAT THEY DONT WORK THAT WELL, SO I WAS THINKING IN TAKING THE HEADLIGHTS TO GET A SMOKE MODE SO U CAN'T TELL BOUT THE FOG WHAT U GUYS THINK? ALSO I DONT HAVE A IPOD CONECTOR IN THIS VEHICLE DOES ANY1 KNOW IF U CAN ADAPT A IPOD CONECTOR TO THE STUCK RADIO FROM THIS VEHICLE?

a bit hard to read there but IMO, no on the smoke headlight. There are some good DIY headlight restoration kit out there and they will clear up the foggy yellow cover. As for ipod connection, not sure what kind of system you have but from what I read so far, you can add the connector and have it coded or go with the Dension. The search feature will be your best friend on those topics.

as for the headlight tint, it's entirely up to you but if you wetsand the headlight cover then use the restoration kit, it'll work. I've done it on several cars in the past. Takes time and if you have a buffer, use it.
