Are you talking about the housing??? If so maybe take them off and try some bleach?. But most likely it will not help because those stains are burned in.

Just polish them with regular wax. I heard it works wonders.

I tried a few things, wax and plastic cleaner makes it a little better but you can never get all the yellow out. ask ckta he might have a home made remedy, like using salad dressing or something.

Mothers and Zaino make plastic polish that HELPS alot. Some of the "yelow" is inside the plastic and will never come out.
