I know this has been asked many times but someone mentioned UV protective properties in carnuaba based wax vs sealant like ULW. Should I finish off my headlight with say megs gold class carnuaba wax or ULW? I haven't heard anything too great about the headlight protectant from megs.

I coat my '12 Ram head & tail lenses w/ Collinite 845 6-7 times a year, and they look brand new 5 years later.
 
I always start with headlight restoration when needed on full details since it such a mess. Once they're perfect. I use wolfgang plastic surface sealant (because I received a bottle for free at some point) Then after the vehicle is finished I always use Optimum Car Wax. Which other than FK1000p once a year on my 2004 dakota, OCW is all I use to maintain it's headlights. I've polished them once VERY LIGHT with Optimum Poli-seal but that was only because of the swirls I've induced over the years when washing. It didn't remove many of the swirls but I am just not willing to get more aggressive with them. On customers cars that have headlights that haven't started to yellow and oxidize, I use opti-seal followed OCW.
 
A 03 gmc envoy and 01 GMC Sierra and all I do is wax it twice a year when I wax the car from the time they were new.They still look new.
 
Personally I would install an Xpel headlight kit and top it with either CQuartz TiO2 or DLUX after, it will be super easy to install and last for years! You can get the film in smoke too
