I have a 2003 TL-P and it just rained several hours ago. I also noticed a little condensation in my fog lamps as well. The size of the build up is a little smaller than the size of a dime. The condensation was near the edge of the fog lamp on the clear plastic housing, not the reflectors. How big is your build-up?

Take it to an Acura dealer and have them replace the fog housing. It happened to me also. The housing is supposed to be completely sealed. Mission Viejo Acura rocks for anyone in So. Cal.

I doubt you can ever have a completely sealed head lamp. I wount worry about it too much. Once you turn on the lights, nothing should be able to withstand the heat that the fogs give out. Now if you have water in the HID lamp..then that's a problem.

I have the same problem as well. But how am I supposed to get that replaced? By the time I go to the dealership, it'll be bright and sunny. So there will be no fogging.
