i knew when i clicked on the tread that was going to be your problem....

the lights are cheap, poorly made. switch back to stock and your set.

You could try to reseal the lights with silicone or something?

Drill a small hole or two in the back of the housing. It'll allow the water vapors to escape. Its what I did with my stock headlights.

moisture?! usually kids driving cars go so damn fast with those totally sweet lights that they dont have time for moisture.

i say, get some nos stickers.

nos stickers and clear tail lights give you like 50000whp and then you can go so fast moisture just beads up and rolls off.

you haters are orginal, glad we can be winners.

take the lights out, put a silicon bead around them, make sure they are wiped clean.. if you can't open them.. put them in an oven, then clean/dry, re-silicon the edges, and install.

Come on now that is the Honda Tech way. Death to Altezzas but let's spend $400 on a JDM gauge cluster that does the same thing as the stock one

^^(specv5150)^^

Usually when i see people with the JDM cluster it is because the cluster that comes with their car has no tach, like mine and it only costs $150 as opposted to those shitty looking ex/si clusters that people still want $100-$125 for. I'd rather spend $25 more to enjoy the inside of my car. But hey if you like shitty lights you are going to spend 100dollars and have them fog up then yorray to you

I disagree. I dont really give a **** what people put on THEIR car. Would I get those gay *** looking lights...no BUT I dont agree with all the people who yell rice this rice that but LOVE exspensive rice...JDM. That is my whole point. Altezzas true are ugly and add NO power, but neither do front lips, or JDM folding mirrors, or $900 spoon gauge clusters.

I dont classify rice as something that serves no purpose i would concider rice something that drastically alters the original design of a car. So big wings, multicolored interior, stupid *** lights, 5" tacks, 5Foot wings,heavy 18" wheels, and so on a so on. But hey.... to each his own

IM glad you guys are having an arguement over stupid stuff...like one group goes out of there way to buy someone elses stock stuff from another country(jdm)..while the people in that country that influence them are selling it cause they want aftermarket stuff..NOw in america if someones doing that its rice and forbidden ..Go to a canadian or neutral forum and see what they say about jdm...They say stupid americans buy someone elses crap they dont want and think its fast....haha but i use both groups to my advantage and do what i want to customize my car to my liking not to be approved by a group..

the dude didnt ask if they where gay or not he just ask how can he fix his problem with the moisture, seems like every post on honda tech turns into who can flame the best or who can be the toughest e-thug , now thats gay

yeah but some silicone should work fine or the small hole drill tip should work too
