Hella Headlights
some members here have experienced condensation buildup on the inside of the lens, that is why I have held off on the Hellas! My stockers have 0 condensation buildup in 2 years of ownership!...
Well you could always buy a set direct from Ford (dealer) I doubt you would have a problem. I have the hella's in right now with piaa bulbs.
I bought actual hella brand housings from tirerack.com.

I think some guys have resealed the Hellas prior to install to prevent problems with condensation. I had some Depo brand black headlights that leaked and had the lenses craze up on me after just a year of ownership. After that crap I bought genuine stock Ford Harley Davidson F150 headlights. Weren't that much more than the Hellas, and I have never had one single issue with them.
IMO OE parts such as this are the only way to go.

I had bought a set of hellas off a ebay store and 2 days after install and a rainy day I noticed they had quite a bit of condensation, I through them away and told myself that if I buy another set of hellas or another type that before I install them that i'm gonna run a full thin layer of clear silicone around where the lens meet the housing.
