Default Condensation in headlamp

Has anyone experienced this?

Is is possible to remove the headlight, remove the lamps, and some how dry out the lens?

ta!

just done this with both mine (only 1 was actually suffering). All new bulbs and a good week or two in the airing cupboard, followed by a good clean and reseal of the edges seems to have done the trick!

You need to remove the bumper to remove the headlight.

I have this problem, and just removed the rubber cover for the main beam. Several months on...no problems...happy days

Click on the little cog next to the search box at the top of the screen

In the "Find Words" box, type: condensation and headlight

In the "Find in forum" box select: UK S2000 Community

Job done.

(Sorry to sound like a grumpy git!!!)
