I would say drill holes in the bottom of the headlight for the water to go out of, but you probably dont want to hear that ghetto shit.

Leave your headlights on the dry out the lense, then try sealing the edges around it.We've had some luck at work with that...

I had the same problem. I took out both bulbs, used a hair-dryer to blow in HOT air through one of the bulb holes (low beam, also took off the air box). The condensation will disappear in a few minutes due to evaporation, you'll also notice that the glass will warm up more than usual, and I think this re-sealed the lamps because of the heat.

well here is one way to do it but its not the easiest but i havent had it fail yet, first you take the light and either boil it in water to get the silicone to break up or you take a blow drier to it. once you get it apart you can clean the piss out of it the silicone the edges and put it back together and thin put silicone around the seal on the outside and wipe away all the acces silicone. it works nice but its better than drilling holes in your lights,

I had the same problem with my tail lights.
I did not take them apart, just dried them real good and put a thin bead of clear silicone on them. Had a slight leak in one and had to re-silicone it. No leaks for about three months. |

Re: Re: Moisture in headlights.
WOW, old enough thread?
You have to remove the front bumper to remove headlight assy. Well you really don't have to, but it makes life so much easier. Bumper removal takes a whole 5 min. |
