I'm still not sure what the 360ID is, when you go to that link all they talk about is the ALR. I'm guessing that it is some kind of protective topcoat because I saw mention that you have to periodicaly reapply it.

Polycarb. Headlamp housings have
a lifespan. Auto makers know this. They design it as such. Some Automakers make them better than others. Ever notice the
Dodge Neon headlamps... after 2 years they are garbage. But then again...the Dodge Neon is a two year throw away vehicle anyways.
I have to wonder if ALR is legit.( any better or even worse than other products..)
Toyota doesn't recommend anything be used on the headlamps as this will remove the UV layer. But this UV layer is not explained well enough by the MFrs.
From what I have learned... the
UV "layer" is actually an additive to the polycarbanate plastic during the mold process...
NOT a "LAYER" that is applied
over the final molded lens when manufactered.
Just wash and keep clean is all they recommend. If oxidized...i believe it is on it's way out. And it doesn't matter what yu use on them to keep the clarity and light output close to "like new" condition.
ALR reminds me of
"as seen on TV" infomercial regarding similar product to remove
eye glass scratches. Just wipe on and voila clarity is restored to original. I don't buy into this nonsense.
Does anyone else have more to add or correct here??
