take off the rubber cover and bulb and let cool air in. Then it should go away. |

you can also get the fog out by breaking the cover... little tip i picked up while parallel parking! :p |
that the rubber cover off and use a blow dryer until its all gone |

So you got the single projectors?and u have a coupe?go to honda and pick up the sedan headlight sockets.they should fit and stop the fogging.I had the same prob till I did this and now..... Poof..... No fog. |
i learned that if you use a hair dryer it will leave little water spots on the inside of the clear lense. If i was you i would clear them, and in the process wipe off the lense with a rear soft rag. |
normally its moisture buildup and letting the air in should fix it. |
one of my lights was fogged up pretty bad after the heavy rain. thanks to me doing the DIY clearning headlight mod and me not sealing it well enough. i just opened them up again and cleaned them out and painted them all nice. i resealed them this time with a window/door silicon so hopefully they wont have the problem again. but if you never opened your headlights, i'm guessing it's getting moisture from the back where the bulb is, check the rubber cover around the bulb for damage or improper seal. |
use the DIY on this website to clear out your headlights... you should be fine after with enough silicon :) i know i had to use like 3 packs on mine :nono: |

Yea.I had silcone on them and it fogged up cuz it left gaps. These new sockets are a perfect fit. |
Go to honda and pick them up if u have the single halo projectors |
