It looks mint now!
However, I would recommend getting them professionally respreyed with clear laquer to protect them from turning yellowish (UV light does it in time)

Looks OK. You do realise that now you've got your phone back that pics are expected of your new seats? - http://www.projectpuma.com/viewtopic.php?p=347147#p347147

Hi, so I have the same problem with my headlights, thing is I already polished on the outside and improved a lot, but still yellowish and from what I can tell it’s on the inside, problem is I don’t know exactly how to separate the black plastic so I can polish on the inside, used a couple of cleaning products, it got better but still no clear plastic like brand new, so I got to “scrub”.
Don’t know if it’s glued together or if there’s some “slide” and remove.

AFAIK the clear lens is bonded into the plastic housing. I believe someone on the site removed it to do something but that might have been the rear units. Have a search, also YouTube might well have some tips on removing lenses from headlights.

I also cleaned mine back in the day, was very easy & a huge improvement as mine were dirty as hell inside.
