How to install H&R Sport Cup Kit Suspension & headlight question

I have searched the How To's for the DIY thread and it appears the link is dead. Also wasn't able to find a write up via the search function. Does anyone have a write up saved by chance? Also need help deciding on which pads to use.

Next on the list is to correct my oxidized headlight issue. I've tried the kits numerous times but it appears much of the oxidization is on the inside of the lens. I have heard about throwing the lights in the oven in order to remove the lens. Anything special I would need to know about CLK housings before I attempt that?

Thanks

Re oxidized headlamps -

Which kit did you try? Some are garbage. 30 minutes with the Sylvania kit left me very satisfied.

I had seen your write up about the Sylvania kit but I have been unable to find one in stores. I also struggle to get myself to put more money into restoring them from the outside if the problem is on the inside of the lens
If I can find the kit I suppose I will give it a shot

I just checked - it is $21 on Amazon, which is where I got mine.
