I know that our Celica's headlight don't yellow but I've got a Corolla that did. I bought a cleaner kit made just for this problem which cost $10 but it didn't work . I ended up getting them clean with toothpaste. The plain white Crest tooth paste seems to work best. All you do is put some on a paper towel and buff the headlight with it then wipe it off with a clean towel or paper towel. They look like new headlights. Hope this helps someone else on here.

This.

My roommate and I, came across a guy looking for work, said he could fix the yellow/haze on my roommates car.
and in like 15 min had them super clear with a little bit of wet sanding, rubbing compound and a buffer!
