Question Help with headlights?

I have a 1992 SC400. One of my headlights went out and I didn't know it until I got pulled over one night. When I looked at it I noticed it wasn't all the way out, it appeared to be only half out. There is a lot of water / condensation in my headlights that never seem to dry up. I am aware that this is a common problem for the SC's headlights. Should I just replace the bulb or find a new set of headlights? Will the moisture in the headlights cause any problems in the future ? Thanks

Get the new CCFL halo headlights. Look awesome and perform better for like 150 bucks or so.

Search...but quick tip:

remove headlights from car, all bulbs/wires, remove metal clips, place headlight in oven @ 350* for 5-7minutes on cookie sheet, remove from oven, pry lens from housing, clean inside parts, drill several holes on bottom of main black housing (i used a 1/2'' bit, 6 holes on each housing) reassemble with 100% silicone..enjoy beer and clean lights for 24hrs, reinstall, enjoy!
