Well I washed my car yesterday and at dawn I walked out side and found that there was condensation in it. No cracks and no leaks before, so why now? I washed it the same way I always do, and didnt deliberately spray the headlights. It doesnt seem to go away, so how do I get it out?

LA should be pretty warm still so I dont think the cold weather affected it.. Did you make sure the rubber seal for the headlight bulbs was installed correctly? If nothing seems wrong maybe the silicone seal is starting to go on them..

it should go out eventually. mine were fine for a month and then the whole thing fogged over. i drove with headlights on for a while and finally it cleared up. happens every so often but usually they are fine.

ight cool i was just making sure, and yah LA is still 90 degrees!!! but in the corner towards the grille i could see little spots of water where it looks like it came from but i dont know. also the parking bulbs dont have the same base so they dont fit perfectly but it never fogged before, and i check it and it was still in tight.

i will go put my heads on and see what happens, if it dries it up or not
