Default condensation...dang it!

Hi,

I cleared out my headlights about a month ago and everything's been okay, washed the car a few times, no problems. Then I notice last night, after driving from san diego to the bay area that there's now water in my right headlight. What the heck? It wasn't raining, I didn't wash it, where did it come from???

I guess that's not that important, what's more important is how to I get it out? There is quite a bit of water droplets gathered in there now, and any idea how I might stop it?

I know the obivous one is to re-do the lights but it really was such a pain in the butt, I'd be much happier with an easier solution, thanks guys,

Ben

take the light housing out, then
you need to do two things.

first, take out two light sockets (one for signal and one for small lights)
and blow hair drier through one hole, letting air out from the other hole.
this way you can dry the inside out.



second thing you need to do before you put the housing back on the car is
to seal it with silicon sealant.
you can get this from hardware store or home depot.
