Black Projector lights F/S or Advice.

I bought these from X3racing.com a little while back, and installed them on my car. I used the 2 bulbs from my orginal lights but noticed that there was a little bit of condensation on the inside of the housing, besided that they looked awesome.

http://www.x3racing.com/product.asp?pid=PRO-YD-HC01-BK

I will sell them for $100 + shipping if someone wants them, or I will keep them and re-install them if someone knows how I can avoid the condensation problem?

Besides that they are in mint condition, only used for about 1 hour. The bulbs from my stock light didn't fit %100, so I installed the bulbs with a bit of silicone around the seal for them to seat. I don't know what caused the condensation, but it might have been from going from inside my air condiioned appartment out to the 100 Deg humid garage here in South Texas near the water!

Anyway, suggestions or offers are welcome.

i just got some tyc projectors... siliconed the hell outta the edges... going from nice air conditioning to 100º with 100%-ish humidity fogged up the outside, but after it leveled out, i've had no problems with fogging, even with the ridiculous humidity and the out of nowhere massive downpours.. just my 2 cents..

It is not fogging now, but it is just sitting in my livingroom without the bulbs in it.

blow dry them and the quickly put them on the car. or leave them outdoors, then blowdry them right before they go in the car

So does mean that they will not fog up if I take the black rubber piece off the back?

Anyway, they are still avaliable & mint, $90 to anyone who wants em.
