Driver side FOG light filling up with water
My front, driverside corner fog lam is filling up with water so it's leaking. Is there any other solution besides buying a new light? I was thinking of drilling a tiny hole in the plastic to let the water seep out, but I know there is a rubber tube on the back that is supposed to help the water evaporate as well, but it certainly isn't helping.

Another Way Would Be Is To Take It Out Fill It With Water To Find A Leak...once Found
If Its In The Glass Tape It With Clear Scotch Tape If In Plastic Housing Use Silicone Or Rubber Cement... Fixed My Light On An 318ti Bimmer Like That Never Foged Up Or Got Moister In ....

I bought my I30 with the foglight already filled up. I think this might be one of the things that you should fix ASAP. Does your bulb still work? I think drilling the hole on the bottom is a good idea, but I'm not sure of all the effects it will have. I bought a new one for my car, and I think it cost around $120 or so.

Uhg, so I jacked up the car a little and pulled the plastic shield down and away to get access to the light. I took off one bolt that was bolted upwards, and then saw a second bolt holding the light in. This bolt is really rusty and is stripped, it's just spinning so I couldn't get the light out. What can I do to get the bolt off?
