Re: Headlamp Condensation

Turning on the highbeams after soaking the engine compartment, or after an extended period of moist weather around 0-5 deg. C, should clear them within one hour."
I'm glad we don't get much rain here in Phoenix because it still sounds kinda screwy to me... seems like the "vents" are the culprit. I don't remember the old style "sealed" beam headlights having that problem. Maybe the old way of doing things may still be better in some cases. Having to "dry out" the inside of your headlights by leaving them on for an hour just isn't too cool in my book. Some college educated idiot that never learned to read in high school must have designed them. Oh well, just my humble opinion... far be it for me to hold up the wheels of progress. :roll: :roll: :roll:
