is this because they have gone 'yellow'?

You've got 2 options
- clean them up - I found Tcut worked surprisingly well, others on here have used wet and dry paper (wet) followed by Tcut.
- buy some 'projector' headlamps (these are a straightforward swap) from a post 98 car.  I wouldn't bother with the 97 ones unless the car is really a model year 98 with the projectors which don't go yellow in the same way.

yes they have gone yellow,the mot guy reckoned the lights were fked so i needed new ones,might try the t cutt thing,thanks for the advice
