As above, my pre-97 headlights have got the yellow tint on the indicators and it looks really off-putting, epecially on a dark car.
Just wondering what a cheap and easy way to get rid of this is? ive seen some replacement Valeo and Depo items that dont have this yellow tint, any ideas how much these are new?

You can just remove the headlight, heat up the glue, clean it up and seal it back together

That's what I would do, saves all that fannying about trying to split them.

Edited for "correctness"

TBH, as already said, just buy another set in better nick - saves the hassle. If it's on the inside you'll have to split them. If it's on the outside, intensive polishing can help but not always.
