Leather I am not sure.

Headlights fix in your case because it's chips is Sandpaper. Nothing else will do the job. It might make them clear but not remove the chips. In fact you might have to go really low gritt like 600 and move up because you need to cut in to the plastic pretty deep. Then you work up to 2500 gritt and then polishes and cleaners. Then top it off with sealant & wax.

pretty sure that the easiest fix on that leather is to replace that part...
here is a source:

they have instructions too

and as eoe says, sandpaper is likely the cure for your lights... check out our how to thread:
