another headlight cleaning question
Guys, my headlight has been leaking and because of this there's condensation on the inside of the plastic. How can I clean this without having to continue servicing the inner lens.

Sounds like the seal for the lens is bad...
it's either a reseal or a new headlamp assembly...
I've removed lens assemblies via an oven (heating the seal up) to paint the inner assembly. It's been awhile though I'll hunt for a video dyi...if you like.
That's what it sounds like.
hope this helps

that would be great but the problem isnt opening the headlight, my problem is how do I clean the inside of the headlight? Also, will it fog up on the inside again once I reseal it.

Depends on how well you seal it. Cleaning the inside shouldn't be a problem unless the condesation baked on the inside of the housing. If that's the case, you could use the same products that you would use on the outside to clean the cloudy haze.
