Jeez, these things are a pain to do (without removing glass). But got the both done.

Here is a side by side of the worst one...
Side by side
Side by side
And the finished results...
Passengers side
Passengers side
Drivers side
Drivers side
That looks way better.

It pays to look after them as they seem to deteriorate with the strong UV rays. I spray mine often with a silicone type product which keeps them looking fresh.
