I've had issues with my nighttime visibility.
After inspecting my headlights, I believe my issue is that the reflectors in my headlights have gone dull.
Is replacement my only option or is there something I can do to attempt to restore these?
This is a 1997 with OEM glass headlights. Lenses look good (they are wet in the pics).
Looking for any and all suggestions!

Update: I took the headlight out to take a peak into the headlight from the bulb hole. I tried wiping what I could from this access hole to see if it was dirty but it wasn't. The coating looked pretty well baked. It's possible polishing this surface may have helped. Since these are RHD headlights in a LHD country, I decided it was time to replace them. I ordered a set of Depo headlights for a shipped sum of 377CAD or about 271USD. These retain a glass lens and are for LHD, so it seems like the best choice for me.
