Ok, I just did a jdm hid conversion on my 99 db8 (well about 6 months ago). Recently it started raining a lot and the headlights have built up a ton of moisture. They're almost completely fogged up. My question is this... how do i fix this? I've been searching a ton about baking them. All I have found have been done to paint the inner housing and on civics. These headlights are waaaaaay expensive and I don't wanna screw them up. PLEASE help.

 

no one?

 

ok someone has had to have had this problem

 

I think you have to pop it in the oven for like 3-6 minutes so the glue will loose up. After that clean the insides and seal it up with silicone again.

Yeah, I had this problem.

What I did was simply pull out all the bulbs. On the projecter, there should be a few screws that you need to remove. Once you do, you can remove the projector and you'll have a nice big hole that you can work with.

Then, shake the head light. You want to get as much water out as possible. Then use a hair dryer to blow out and evaporate the moisture in the headlight.

When I did it, I ended up with hardwater spots. So I took some Window cleaner, sprayed it in there, and swooshed it around. The use the blowdryer again.

After all that, I took some sealant and sealed the housing. Also, make sure the caps are in place and locked, the ones you need to turn to remove the bulb.

 

thanks, just what i was looking for
