Hey guys my headlight is fogging up for some reason. It was real humid here for like 3 days, and all of a sudden my left HID headlight got fogged up. I don't know how it happened cause it never happened before. Any suggestions what I should do??? Will it go away or I'm going to have to replace the whole headlight??? Did it happen to anyone else????

well mine fogged up, but only cuz i didnt seal them cortrectly when i put the dde's in

factory seal should be good enough, not to fog them up

Maybe you can open them up when it is dry out and let them sit then reclose them.

what the hell language is that, but back to the thread, check your bulbs in the back, maybe you didnt put it in correctly, to get the condensation out you dnt need to open them, just take the headlight out, get a hair dryer, take a bulb out, turn the hair dryer on, and put the hot blowing air in the open hole. if you need instructions on how to take your headlight out pm me, i dnt wana post that kinda info.

I think it's russian, anyway...

Shurik, you can always open the headlights, remove the condensation and use more silicone to reseal them. I've had this problem on my pass. side headlight since clearing out my blinkers.

dont open the headlight, you might just cause more problems, just use the hair dryer idea i posted below, my friend has aftermarket headlights for his mustang and they keep fogging up, useing the hair dryer clears up the fog everytime, hes just to stupid to seal them up, silicone dosent work, it breaks apart and dosent hold well, if your set on sealing, go to home depot ad pick up goop, weather srtipping sealant, its by the super glue, this will dry hard as a rock, and i used them on my headlights after the angel eye install and they havent fogged up once! (knock on wood). just check the bulbs first, maybe one wasnt tight whenyou replaced it, and dry it out with the hair dryer. if this dosent work, go to the dealer ship, it should be iunder warentee, you shouldnt have to pay for it.

Ok I'll try to dry it out with the hairdryer, but I tryed something else. Well what I tried is I turned the HID headlights on and dried almost all the water out, not all but it kinda worked. I tryed taking high beam bulb out and turning the HID so all the condensation could evaporate through that high beam hole. Well it almost did evaporate but not the whole headlight. Well whenever I drove agian, the headlight got fogged up once again. Well I think there's a little hole somewhere, but what's weird is that the headlight has never been dameged, and it got fogged up all of a sudden for some reason.
Well Ok guys I'll try that hair dryer trick, hope that'll work.

what da hell man.... we can all read normal size fonts.

Just open up your headlights, dry it completely, and seal it w/ some weatherproof clear sealant
