Unhappy Headlight Problems

I just noticed today that there must be a leak in my headlight housing. There is condensation all over the inside, its all foggy it goes all the way over to the blinker. Anyone had this problem before? How should I go about fixing it. I havent done any mods on the headlights, they are compleetly stock. If worse comes to worse I may have to clear the corners....

open them up and clean them out, take out the orange while you are at it. when you put it back together, the last heating s3ssion after you have screwed everything together and clamped it on, leave it in for about 10 minutes or so. for me, this seemed to suck the headlight together and cause it to seal itself. i fixed both of my headlight condensation problems this way

yeah, ill try and get to that tutorial tomorrow. if you know where you're leaking at, you can just seal it with some caulking or something. but i would still take it apart and clean it out

Just get some black silicon and seal them up after you take them apart.
