2011 Electra Glide hazy spot light question.
 
I notice that the spot light lens on the 2011 Electra Glide Classic Lt. are not as clear as the head light lens they look a little hazy compared to the head light lens do they have a plastic lens on spot lights and a glass lens on the head light? If they are plastic I wonder if they have glass replacement lens for them? I had a 99 Electra Glide and I'm pretty sure all 3 lights had clear looking lens on them.

Cleaning the inside of spot lights
 
I have cleaned inside both the headlight and running lights.

Take lamps off, remove bulb (remember not to touch the bulbs with bare hands).

I use IPA (isopropyl alcohol / rubbing alcohol) as the cleaning agent.

Small piece of paper towel, lightly soak with IPA, use forceps to hold the soaked paper towel, work it around on the inside of the lense until clean, let it dry, install, clean and good to go.

Makes a difference and clearly removes the haze.

Thanks I'll give that a try.

I do the same as old v twin and use the air compresser to dry it out.

Used q-tips to clean the insides. Careful not to let anything get on the reflector though
