You can now get a lens polishing kit at an auto store, like auto zone.
The fogginess of your car's lens is actually a clear coat that is applied to the plastic, to retard the UV rays from damaging the plastic. Once that clear coat is burnt from the solar rays, it becomes foggy.
Polishing your lenses will remove this old coat and you will need to apply a new coat. The kits available have all the materials you need to fix it. It will not be as good as nes, but the improvement will be noticeable. You do not have to remove your lights. quote taken from Yahoo answers

Most Tiburon and other sport car sites should have specific headlight cleaningdetails, but if you want to clean the inside of the lens, you'll need to remove it and either put it in the oven, or apply a heat gun to the seal. Once opened, you can clean it with a rag and some plastic polish for lenses, and then re-seal it with a new tube of weatherproof sealant. You'll need to clamp it or hold it together for some time to insure proper seal.

Your best bet is to replace the headlight housings. According to two guys garage you can use toothpaste to clear the lenses, however don't recomend doing this unless you are sure of what toothpaste to use which I will write later.
