To ensure road safety especially at night, more and more vehicle owners are using headlight restoration kits as a cheaper alternative for making their car lights clearer and thus, more functional. According to the National Transportation Statistics, 50.5% of fatal vehicle crashes in 2011 occurred from 6PM to 6AM. Also, 50.6% of fatal vehicle crashes occurred when it was dark or during dawn or dusk. Dirty headlights can cut your night vision in half, make it harder for you to navigate the roads, and also make it difficult for other drivers to see your car at night.

But with too many headlight restoration kits available today, which ones can provide you with the results that you desire? Which ones can restore your headlights to like-new condition without damaging them or the environment?

Here are five headlight restoration products that we have checked out for you. Although some of these products are more expensive than the ones you can find on Amazon, we made sure that they are eco-friendly and will not damage your cars.
