The waterspots were very light and hardly noticable. They weren't on the front, just on the lens posted (I don't know what that's called).

From the picture, those were on the outside and cleaned simply with windex. I'm going to take her out tomorrow and stir up some moisture to make sure I got everything.

I put all the screws on the bumper and forgot that styraphome thing, I was cussing for a while.. heh...

Thanks

you might not need to open it...just take the headlight off, use a hair dryer and blow it through the hole where the bulbs go and dry it. Then use lots of sealant and seal the edges...

I had the same problem not long ago,
I resolved with the light still on the car , I opened up the well liner as much as I could and removed the two bulbs and hooked up a drain hose that fit in the light socket (about an inch in diameter) and pushed into the light opening while the bottom was out as well then I hooked it up to my air compressor and ran it intermittently for about an hour until the moisture evaporated.
Note: I did this on a cool day with low humidity and I was careful to bleed the compressor of any moisture before I began. Also for good measure I left the top bulb/socket out for the night and installed everything in the morning and haven't had a problem since!

Did that make sense at all?
P.M. if you want me to go over that again!

Oh yeah, I tried the blow dryer first and it overheated and did not evaporate as quickly as the cool air!
