How about that condensation in the headlights...

Anyone know of some ways to clear up condensation in the aftermarket sidemarkers? The ones i have are the american muscle ones and there is a crap ton of condensation in the driver side one.

Remove the bulb overnight. Just reach under the bumper and twist it out, let it hang until next time you drive.

No crap? Hmm i was thinking it got in there by letting air get to it. I will try that and see if it works. Does it have to be a warm dry night, or will just any night do?

Are you tlaking about the turn signals? I had the same issue and just drilled tiny holes in the bottom so the condensation will basically evaporate. Ive never had it back yet. When you drill 2 or 3 tiny holes your letting the gases excape instead of building up inside and causing condensation.

Did you notice it after you washed it?

Try sealing it better. You aren't going to have condensation in it if it is sealed.

Oven for about 350 degrees, open and reseal.

aftermarket side markers arent sealed sop you don't need to do that.

Dry them out completely, take clear silicone sealant and go around the entire housing. presto no more condensation

I have just noticed it after this winter. We have had a very very very wet winter down here.
