Water in headlight

I washed my car and some water got into my right headlight, how the hell do i get it out? Ive heard to remove the headlight i need to remove the front bumper? Can i not just remove the front lens some way and clean it up and then seal the small crack?

The water has been inside for quite a while now and it wont go away and its making the light all misty and look really ugly.

Any suggestions??

Re: Water in headlight

you'd have to remove the headlight to get the lens off anyway. my advice is to remove the rubber seal thing at the back of the headlight, the one that covers the back of the bulb and let it sit overnight with the hood open just to let air get in and out. and if that doesn't work, may wanna try blowin some hot air in there with a hair dryer or somethin.

Thats not water. Its head light fluid and you better be sure it is full or they wont work lol. I second the heat gun idea. I have got water in my lights and a heat gun dried it up fast. You could even use a blow dryer.

Sorry about that friend. I like to make jokes. The blow drier will work fine though.

Re: Water in headlight

There's probably a hole in your headlight housing. My left headlight has a tiny hole, but when rain comes or washing the car, the headlight gets misted up. It doesn't really bother me, and it gives me an excuse to buy JDM headlights.
