Angry 1st gen TL headlight fogging

I just changed my corner bulb Saturday night and I washed my car today and it fogged up.
This never happened before. It has to be something with the bulb I changed. Theres only 1 way to put it in right? I took it out and tried again but it still fogs! Maybe theres an O-ring that goes around it? I have to check the other side tomoorow and see. HAs anyone had this problem? Whats the best way to get out the moisture?

Cool

I just checked mine and there is an O-ring... As for the moisture, i'd just let it evaporate on it's own, cause if it got in on it's own, i'm sure it can leave on it's own...My fog lights fogged when i didn;t replace them correctly and they cleared on their own...

Whoa. This topic is old. LOL. Anyway, the bulb in my corner light wasn't in all the way and it fogged up my headlight. I just took out the corner & headlight bulb and drove around for a while and it went away. I put the bulbs in the right way and it never happened again.
