        Maybe a good polyurethane clear coat can prevent the lens from turning yellow...

        I also found this in google .

        "Keep the car parked indoors whenever possible, or park where the lights don't face the sun. There are also UV-protective sprays available, but they may reduce the light transmission slightly.

        If the lights have already started getting crusty, then stripping the coating and recoating may help prolong the life of the lenses. Once the lenses themselves yellow, that is a permanent condition as it is more than 'skin deep'. You want to prevent that whenever possible. Again -- indoor parking is definitely of benefit."
