i might have got some humidity in my headlight. what do i do to get it out? you really cant tell in the day but in the night it tends to show. what caused it and what do i do? thanks!

Edit here are some better pics as you can see lights off no water look, lights on and standing at an angle you see it. i wiped the inside on the lens and nothing changed sooo.........???????????????????????

when you opened up your headlights and sealed them back it prolly wasn't sealed "properly" that's what causes the condensation in your headlights when air gets in there and stuff.

Solution: Open them back up and reseal them or just let it be...happens to most people but it's really no biggie unless you got water building up in there haha.

well im not real sure that is what it is yet cause i still have dired silicone on the outside from my hands. and.... my headlight lenses look pitted to begin with like it was caught behind a sand truck. so i will clean it good and then see how it is. but they should have been sealed good because i had the stock tar and silicone so .... time will tell.

They didn't get reaseled properly. Take them back apart, get the water out, and reheat the sealant. You might also want to run a silicone bead around them. IBTM

what do you mean "relaeased properly?" and i also ran a bead of silicone. could the weather have played a part?

i think he meant resealed....im tellin you man you think you resealed them properly but there not.

edit: that's just one of the cons of blacking them out...some people don't have the problem though but i know i did when i opened mine up.

you didnt seal them well when you took them apart, so water gets in there from the rain or just humidity. you can vent them out by taking off that black rubber thing that goes over your lightbulb, but if you want to condensation to stop youll have to reseal the headlights.

use the caulk that plumbers use for bathtubs etc., just use the clear one.

If you dont feel like opening them up all the way then just get a hair dryer and take out the turn signal bulb. Stick the hair drier in the hole and dry until moisture is gone. Then get some clear kitchen and bath caulk and seal it up. That should do it (I had the same problem).

You know those "do not eat" packets that come with your shoes/luggage/wallet/anything that needs to be kept dry during shipping? My buddy taped one little packet inside each housing (behind the paint part, and hidden from view). Might just be a little extra safeguard for ya.

im not sure it is humidity because i stuck a peice of wire with a rag on the end in the headlight wiped what i could and it still look the same. it could just be pitted.

well then you are going to have to reopen them and clean the inside of the plastic!

yea i think but im confused because i windexed them before i put it back together. so.... and if i did need to clean the plastic then a little would have wiped off on the rag. anyone have any oems for cheap? all i need is the cover?

Someone had a seemingly related problem on another forum--maybe it will help:
