TSX Fog lamp fogging it up

My driver side's fog lamp is not seal well enough...so the fog actually fogged up
it also killed my Nokya bulb....
I am wondering if anyone know how to reseal this thing....
just like headlamp? bake to open or wat?
I am afraid this thing gonna melt ....since it's probably made off different material from headlight

if you got warranty, get it replaced via warranty.

Is there a tiny pin hole in it? Or is it cracked at all. My left fog was doing the same thing and after further inspection, I found a tiny pin hole in it. I used some clear sillicone to plug it and it is fine now.

My passenger side fog lens has a hole the size of a nickel. The other is close to complete implosion because of the numerous cracks.

I think that's why it never fogs up and I never worry about it overheating, especially when I'm in idle.

At least you didn't pay full price at the dealership to get them installed. If it's any consolation, dealer-installed fog lights are not covered by any Acura or dealer warranty.
