T-Cut plus cloth = no more dull light covers
9 years to start showing some minor deterioration seems fair.
Once the original UV film has gone the deterioration will accelerate, but buffing them clear again is a half hour job and lasts a few years before needing another go. Only needed to do mine once in 14 yrs, and the car has lived outside for 90% of the time, was remarkably crystal clear when polished, now 18mths+ looking normal, in another 18mths probably a bit cloudy.
