freakin moisture in my projector!

I guess it may be time to get those one piece headlights but I dont kow. Water seems to be getting into my driver side projector and it just simply does not evaporate. Must be a leaky seal. Is there anthing I should do and has this happen to anyone else?

Yeah, when you say projectors, do you have one of those imitation type headlamps? (Ebay, OBX, Matrix, etc.) or did you do a retro swap? If its a retro swap, then you probably need to reseal your headlamps. If its those imitation... well... you get what you get.

so they're NOT projectors, just OEM headlights? Much like the taillights, you can heat up the edges and separate them, then use your flavor of sticky adhesive goo to reseal them.

Yeah, mine are the same way. I'm not sure if it's the seals or actual cracks in the lense.
