Take out the headlight and I believe there are 3 holes in the back of it. Use a blow dryer to dry it off. I've done that once and it evaporated all the water. Make sure to reseal the headlight too.

maybe pull off the rubber things on the inside of the engine bay that are there to keep water etc out around the wiring and let it air dry...beats me

^^^ yea thats actualy a very good way to do it... but it depends on where the fog is..... I have fog right above the lil circle to the right and it wont come out, its like its to tight of a spot for it to come out..... Plus... If u leave your car out in the sun and take off that lil rubber piece that should help to...... good luck mang.

just take out your headlight and run a heavy bead of clear sealant on it, thats what i did when mines fogged up and no more fog

You don't HAVE to take it apart with the way I told you. That's why I said there's THREE holes in the back. I TOLD YOU to reseal it because there's a part where you didn't seal it entirely. Anyway do whatever you want I'm done with you.

I suggest you take the TYCs apart:

Take all the bulbs out of the TYC, Set the oven too 260, turn it OFF, place the TYCs in there for 5-6 minutes

Take the lense off, and clean the inside of the lense, then put it back together

Then take water proof silicone (kitchen and bath II) and put 2 layers of the silicone around the seal (where the lense meets the headlight).

Or... You can just take the headlight off and get the water out by using a hair dryer... Problem is, you will always have a water mark inside the headlight. And in time, It will just look really ugly. Then add a layer of silicone where you think its needed...

Anyways, Good luck with that... I suggest taking them apart though (a water spot would constantly **** me off)
