    I have a 2009 Toyota Quad cab. I replaced the stock headlights due to moisture in the passenger side headlight. The replacement OEM certified headlight did the same thing 3 days after warranty expired. Had to replace due to inner chrome coming off. Guess what? One week after warranty expired on the replacement, the same side filled up with water again! Want to try the oven method this time, does anyone know the temperature and time to do this? Help before I acquire another driver's side headlamp. (They only come in sets, so I have extra headlights :eek:. Thanks.
