How to get rid of condensation in gauges
Problem: Every time it gets cold condensation forms on inside of gauge lenses.
Solution: get the high humidity air out of the gauge and replace with dry air.
I doubt I'm the only one that has experienced this, but I'm assuming that it is my fault because I sometimes install gauges when the humidity is high. I have one that is 2 years old and still "cries" when the ambient air temp gets cold.
Has anyone found a remedy for this? Pull the light out and put some silica gel over the hole for a couple days?

seems like you answered your own question but yeah pull cluster out and open it up and seal it very tightly with a special sealer!
Seal it? You have to get the moisture out first.
That was a possible, but not the preferred solution about the silica thing. I don't even know if it would work or not.

well ofcourse you get the mouisture out first..
but yes if you do a good job that would work it just needs to be completelly sealed
