SO I washed my truck today because it was a nice day finally and stopped raining, well it came out awsome as usual and looked good, however I realized that my passenger side headlight is now got condensation in it, I do have after market headlights, the HD replicas.....now I have never had this problem before, and I have washed it a few times before with these headlights on............Now what can I do to get rid of this problem and the condensation that is now in there, will it dry out on its own, or what? How did it get in there in the first place? Well any of these questions that anyone can answer please feel free to help a fellow Ford guy out....thanks Here are some pics of the headlights I got, so you know what I am talking about.

 

my driver side Hella just did it as well...

the passenger side did it moths ago and i dried it out with a hairdryer and it has not returned.

 

Take it apart and dry it out with a hairdryer, then reseal it with some good RTV sealant. This will prevent it from happening again.

Do a search for one of the "I painted my headlight" threads and there are instructions on how to take it apart in there.

 

-remove headlight from truck
-aim hairdryer set on Hot into the biggest hole...goal is to get it hot and the moisture will exit via the other 2 holes
-let it sit there for 10-15 minutes

-use a good outdoor quality silicone that stays pliable and liberally cover the entire seam that joins the 2 halves together
-let it cure overnight before taking outside and installing headlight into truck

 

^^^^I agree. I did the headlight mod and once in awhile it fogs up, but goes away within a few hours on its own. Once winter is over Im gonna take them off and put some more sealant around it.

 

My driver's side Hella is doing the same thing. I need to take it out and reseal it, again..... I already resealed them 6 months ago. It gets a little annoying!

This time, I will let them cure overnight, instead of 6 hours.....especially when it is only 20 degress out!

 

yeah mine occasionally get some condensation and i tried to silicone around them a few years back and it helped, but still get a little in once in a while. it usually goes away in a day.

 

Buy the Originals from the FoMoCo........mine have no condensation in 2 years!.....
