Ok...I have on 03 Manual with 5K on it and the headlights were both replaced already bcs they were fogging up....I never touched them or the new ones...and now this pair too is fogging...can anyone think of a reason why two sets of mine would do this??? Those who have cleared their lights and taken the lens apart may know best....I just wanna make sure Itll get fixed perm. if I get a third set put in..

thanks guys...

 

Hey with my cleared lights...i havent really had a problem w/ severe fogging. Ive had them fog a few times but nothing to bad. Did you get new ones from the factory?

 

perhaps they werent installed correctly unopened headlights really shouldnt fog at all, theres a very good seal all the way around. i also cleared my lights and get very minor fogging every now and then, but never had them fog before i opened them up. hey as long as yours are fogging anways, might as well go and clear them

 

Yah...I think Im going to have them put in by another local Acura dealer next time...under warrenty again of course....I just am concerned as to why id have two sets that do it....and it almost looks like theres some salt that got under there too...IM not sure...but it looks like it from all the treated roads...

 

From the design of the HID type of headlight housing, the leakage points are the holes where the other bulbs enter the housing. The factory lubes the rubber gaskets to help keep them sealed. Since I am sure that these parts are all the same (from the first set to the current set) that if you replace them again, and not the other sockects and gaskets, they will leak again. Have the dealer replace them as well.
