Drivers side headlight - ALOT of condensation...

Best cure??  Its getting worse as each day goes by while its raining Sad

HID light too...

Can I just re-seal the lense on using some silicon like you do for an aquarium??  Or will I need to replace the light itself??  If so do I just buy a regular light and move everything across, or are the HID rears different to the regular types??

I bet your all getting sick of these questions now  Grin Grin Grin

Cheers!

Not on an Omega, but seen it done where light unit removed, placed in heated airing cupboard for a few days to dryout then seams resealed with aquarium sealant then replaced in the car.  Once all rubbers etc in place, all was good.....   Wink

I remove the plastic front, dry out and re-seal.
