when i got my car, i noticed that the rear driver tailights have water droplets on them. How do i get rid of them? is it like the procedure for cleaning out the front headlights? and how do you remove it? sheesh, i might break a nail tryin to fix this >_< help please thanx!

 

If it's a water droplet, can't you just wipe them off

I usually just scrub my lights really hard with windex, and it keeps them shining for couple weeks

 

ohhh hehe my bad..i totally forgot to mention that the water droplets were INSIDE of the whole contraption. hehe i wish it was that easy to wipe it off but it's not so darns.. but thanx for your input hehehe

 

Short of unbolting them and pulling out the bulbs to air it out, your only other bet would be to park them in the direct hot sun and hope that it evaporates out.

If you need to take them off, it's not too hard, just a few clips and bolts to remove them.

True is pretty easy to take them out but if its only a few droplets just try parking your car in the sun like doublewhoosh said. I had this same problem. At first I just saw a few water drop and after a few days they went away. After I drove my car in heavy rain though there was probably 50 times more water in there. I waited a week or so to see if they would go away but after about 2 weeks they were still there and there wasnt much I could do. I took my tail lights out and opened them up and just clean them all out and sealed them back up. It was a little time consuming but the results were great. I was also thinking about trying out the cleaning meathod for cleaning headlights. I was going to take the tail lights out of the car and wash them out with hot water mixed with detergent and then wash them out with jet dry. That would have left them very clean and spot free. If its only a few droplets they'll dry up though. Heres a pic of the water in my tail lights.










This was after about 2 weeks when it dried up a little.
