Default headlight condensation

hey there
Someone told me that the 95 GSR's headlights have a replaceable gasket. Apparently that is not true.

Is there a way to clean out the condensation in the headlights and seal them so they don't leak again without having to buy new headlight assemblies (they are super expensive!!).

thanks
Torin

well you have to get something to shoot air into the headlight assembly to dry it out. I have heard of people using an air compressor. Then you can get silicon or something and reseal it around the edges. after that you should be good to go. Just make sure you seal all the openings. If you do it properly you wont have condensations on the inside anymore.

drill a hole in the back
drain the water out
put it out in the sun with the hole facing up so most of the vapor leaves the assembly
after that, either blow it out with dry air, or repeat the process until all the water is gone

then jsut reseal the light housing
