Was wondering what if anything can be done with a condensation problem beginning in my right front park/running light assembly? I checked for cracked or split glass and there is no obvious signs of leakage. The back area is dry and secure. Is there any magick solution to this condition?

drill a small hole in the bottom or some place where water can't get in. has worked in the past

I second what he said, I had the same problem with both front lights, tried everything and had no luck. Finaly drilled the holes just to let the water escape and walaa, no more problems.

thats a good idea. i dont have major water sloshing around...just a fine mist building up on the lens, but it makes sense that if i drill a small hole the air can circulate around and dry things out.
Thanks guys

My drivers side headlight has condensation in it. I pulled the assembly out, dumped the one inch of water out and pressurized it. I couldn't find a leak one, so I'm not sure how the water is getting in. I'll have to try drilling a hole. I've lost two bulbs to it so far.

I drilled about 4~5 1/8 in. holes on the bottom just behind the seam.
This way it will drain with the truck leaning right or left.
And lets the air circulate.

Worked like a charm.

When I was having my water problems,everyone I talked to said there must be a air leak. I to looked and could not find anything wrong, got peeved off and ordered all new lights up front. Thinking with new lamp housings I will fix the problem, Wrong I had even more water. Drilled the holes and now it's fine, I and everyone else was back ward in our thinking.
