If you live somewhere that experiences a lot of snow and below freezing temperatures during the winter season, you know how inconvenient it can be just to get your car out of the driveway.

If you own an EV, there’s a really good chance that you’re going to keep it for many years. That means eventually oxidation will cause your headlights to look cloudy or even yellow and that’s just an eyesore.
