I would suggest buying a whole new headlight because your current one is fogging up. Check out Ebay for a set of depot headlights. Bulbs are less than $15 from DDM Tunning. For quicker responses and answers the search function is very user friendly here on AZ. Hope this helps and welcome to AZ.

You can do a headlight restoration for less than a new headlight.

~Cheers~

Welcome to the forums.

I deleted your new thread and moved this thread to 2G, since it has already received a bunch of replies.

Pull your headlights apart, tinker with the inside, seal them back up, and make sure your ballasts are moisture-free

Have you tried swapping bulbs, to make sure it's the bulb that's out and not the ballast?
