Default Condensation in Headlight. Help!

Ive had the dreaded water in one headlight for a while now. The thing is, I know it can be taken out, taken apart, baked and resealed. The problem with that is that I know if I do it, it will go wrong. id rather leave it to somebody who knows what they are doing.

Does anybody know of any garages that do this kind of thing or even fit a new headlight for less than the Honda stealers?? (quoted me

Quick and easy... I have posted this before..

Just remove the seal on the main beam bulb at the back (3" rubber grommet)

2 - 3 days later and it will be perfect

I bought a replacement from a breaker, and fitted it myself. Happy to help you fit one if you get one.

Rubber seal should work otherwise it isn't a big deal removing it. That price you quote must be for a pair? Certain it was closer to 250
