Need help with cleared headlight
So me and TL2slow today cleared my headlights and added ebay fog lights with 4300K HID's the car looks sick but my dumbass took it to the car wash after i was done here is the deal we finished one light 3 hours before i left his house and finished the other light less then an hour before i left his house and when we were done i went to the car was now the light that we did 3 hours before is clean but the one we did an hour- before had a little condensation in it that it didnt have before we went to the car wash... my question is will this disapere by itself or do i have to re bake the whole headlight? thankss

Did you make sure that you put in foam washers around each HID ballast? Also, did you put silica gel desiccants in the low beam opening of the headlight? (you don't have to open the headlight itself, just the cover of the low beam opening)
I installed my new lights and had condensation issues. I put in the foam washers and gel packs and problem solved

holy sh!t man use some commas and periods.
Do what Trew said and you should be good provided you put everything back together correctly. If it comes back again, you didnt seal it back up right.

I would pull out a bulb, add some more silicone around it (headlight) and use a hair dryer to get the inside nice and toasty. It will dry it out as well as help the silicone seal the headlight better.
