Did you ever crack open your case? It looks like its an inside problem. I dont think wetsand or the toothpaste trick will save that. Have to crack them open to clean them then reseal them.

Blowdry the inside and after its dry, seal the outside with clear rtv silicone.

yeah, i agree that is bullshit. ctr headlights do not leak more than stocks...so thats a huge knock on password's customer service...but either way its a quick fix. just do what siyou later said.

I had a couple of ctr knockoff headlights and they all leaked like yours. What i found is that they all had a kind of a slit on them that seemed to be manufactured on them, and no i am not talking about the vents on the back. the slits were on the edge close to where the front and back are sealed together. just run your fingers over the clear front plastic part to find the hole, seal it up and youre good to go. what I did to dry them was take the headlights out and put a shop vac on the lightbulb hole and let the air blow through out the turn signal bulb hole. you dont have to unseal them.
