If the headlamp glass becomes cloudy, instead of replacing the entire unit, you can polish the glass to make it like new. For this job, you will need the 3M cleaning kit. Following the attached instructions, first wash the glass, then with the specific abrasive paste and plenty of patience, evenly sand the surface of the glass, then clean with alcohol and a clean cloth.

Protect the bodywork and spray the specific spray until it is perfectly shiny and transparent.

Wipe the glass with a cloth while working to remove dirt and residues from the sanded glass.
