Thanks for the update. We’re this aftermarket headlights ? I’m looking to replace mine and I’m starting to notice that aftermarket lights seem to gather water or moisture really fast. Thanks for the diy video
Thanks for the video. I think I’ll use your method to wash the dirty condensation off the inside and then get some sealer to keep it in good condition longer
If this repeats itself, take some silicone sealant to make sure that thing is water tight. Another trick is to put one of those moisture wicking beads (often found in new shoes)inside.
I did the same thing the other day but just about 4 hours later the entire lamp was covered again with condensation. It was a clear 50 degree day too so I don't attribute the water to rain getting in or any type of leak. I removed the rubber boots that work as vents and poked a screwdriver through in case that was blocked but no luck. I can't figure out how this keeps happening.
Why not put a little bit of Damp-Rid water remover inside the headlights and Duct tape the bulbs connection and Silicone the headlights edges on top seams . Or use a charcoal briquettes of little bit from the Camping department or groceries stores don't use anything that got wood inside the charcoal briquettes just plain charcoal briquettes only then seal it up . Then leave it overnight and day without driving the car or truck then by day 2 ,just use a little tube and shop- vacuum to suck out the charcoal briquettes . It might turn into dust by day 2 .then vacuum it out . Then seal it up silicone rubber headlights and small lights connecters o- rings , but cleanup the o- rings first before using the silicone rubber gel made for headlights connecters and others mini-lights . Or faster drying time use a hairdryer gun with a vacuum cleaner tubes and small wrapped up metal tube inserted inside the headlight lenses let it run for just a minute and no longer than that rest in between cooling down then back to heating up 1 minutes then cooling down until no water inside the headlights lenses . Or use a blower from the shop-vacuum cleaner to blow out water .
Just Drill A Few Small Holes In The Back Of The Plastic Housing Under The Hood To Allow It To Breathe And Release The Moisture! I Speak From Experience! It Works! ✌️
@@aaronmonroe7932 If The Backside Of Your Headlight Fixture Is Either Plastic Or Metal, Just Drill A Few Hole In The Upper And Mid Sections to Allow Air To Flow Through And Release/Dry Out The Moisture. After Drilling The Holes, You Can Use A Hair Dryer To Blow Warm Air Into Holes To Remove The Trapped Moister Inside Of The Headlight Fixture. Just Leave The Holes On The Back Side Open To Allow Any New Moisturizer To Escape Through The Holes, Due To The Constant Airflow. Just Make Sure That The Holes Aren't Extremely Big And Not To Small (A Medium Sized Hole Is Perfect), So That There's Adequate Air Flow. I Did This To My 1999 Lexus LS400 And It's Worked Flawlessly! I Hope This Helps You Aaron! Enjoy The Rest Of Your Day! Happy Holidays To You And Your Family! ✌️
The problem is you're almost out of blinker fluid in that thing. Top it off. I recommend the synthetic, rather than traditional fluid If you need instructions click this link. th-cam.com/video/E6GsXhBb10k/w-d-xo.html
Alternatively, you can take out a bulb and have a drive on a dry day. The engine will warm it up, and the open air will pull it out.
Thankyou I’m going to try this
@@zanej3825 how did this work for you?
That sir is a very good idea
and u left the headlights place where u put lamp open also?
Yeah but you didn't find where the leak was coming from ....so this is only a temporary solution....
Hi thank you for your tip. It works for our Honda and I used a hot pad on the outside of the lamp to speed it up. Works wonders. Well done.
Excellent tip! Thank you.
Dude you’re a legend

Hi. I did just like you. Worked out for me. Thank you for the tip

Great minds think alike. I was thinking about using the moisture absorbers that come inside pill bottles.

very helpful!
gm i have a 2015 s550 mercedes B will this wok on it?
You can also put a few desiccant packages just inside your housing. after removing most of my moisture I put some in and have not had a problem since.
How??
Hey nice idea!!
@@rock1181977take out the bulbs and shove em in the hole
So did you reseal the headlights so water would not go back in
Are you blowing air into the headlight, rather than vacuuming it?

thanks man
cAME BACK WITH THE NEXT RAIN !!
After all the water is how you got a seal the seams with 100% waterproof UV resistant silicon
This week on MacGyver…
Did it but moisture came right back the next day..so have to keep on reapeting the process...
take clear caulking and go around perimeter of headlight assembly pushing it into edges - let dry
What mm tube for the vacuum?
just get somthing that fits bro i don’t think the size matters
In the end you have to buy a new headlamp!! I have tried all the tricks.
Or put a towel over your headlight get hairdryer on full heat and go over your headlight for ten minutes and it's gone😊
problem solved until the next time you wash your car or when it rains
Or you can just leave it open overnight 😂
update: Ya , the moisture came back. :(
Worked great. But after I taped off & flex sealed the seams. Still dry 6 months later.
Useful information, but dude, what's with all that camera shaking? very distracting.
Stay tuned tomorrow when he shows you again....n again, n again....lmao
