Hey

Has anyone had any luck getting condensation out of headlights? I've had mine adapted with HIDs and Angel Eyes by rusty and he's done a damn good job sealing them but I've got condensation forming inside them!

I've drilled a small hole in the back of one of the bulb caps on each light to see if that helps and got some silica gel packs coming to stick in there too.

Anyone got any other advice for a long term fix.

Ta
