s'up y'all,
The other day while detailing I noticed that my pass. side headlight was fogged. Has this happend to anyone else? Short of replaceing them, is there anything I could do? As you know 5th gen. lude "eyes" look great. This is F&*%$@# killing me. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Most likely cracked somewhere because it is drawing in moisture. Might want to check all the light plug-ins to make sure they are secure.

same thing happened to me...what happens is if you let your hood smack down hard on the body near the headlights it cracks the seal at the top of the headlight...i had to take mine out, get all the water out of it, glue the thing back up with goop or poxy, put the light back in...its hard as hell to get the light out and back in the hole but it is possible. never had any condensation ever again. and from now on i let my hood down very easy.

The headlight unit should still be under warranty. Mine did the same, and they just replaced it. Best to give them about a week's warning that you're coming in so they can order the unit from spare parts.
