    So I just recently bought a pair of "BHLM" headlights off of ebay from ZOMKspeed. After about 3 weeks and a thunderstorm with heavy rain the passenger side light was full of condensation and it still three days later has not evaporated. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do? Not sure if its a defect or not. Any help would be appreciated.

    Not a defect...just ebay lights
    Pop 'em off and hit 'em with some silicone...works for everybody should work for you!

    Take it off. Take the Bulb out, and let it air dry. Then put the bulb back in, and get some clear silicone. Reseal the whole thing.

    Seal the entire housing. Make sure you dry it out first
