Head Lights With Moisture

[Beemerboy]

I saw cleaning up the lenses on a Lincoln Town car over the weekend...Inside the head light moisture has formed...I'm wondering if any one knows how this can be dried so I can re-seal the lights back up.

Thanks

I had this problem on my old truck. I just used an air compressor and blew it dry that way. I just took it out, blew the air in there, let dry all the way and then you can seal and reinstall.

Thanks I was thinking the same thing....just wanted to see what others have been doing

I actually think I used a hair dryer to speed up the process as well. Just make sure you dont burn the plastic or burn up the hair dryer. I guess a heat gun could be used too.

What i have done in the past is drill a small hole in the top rear portion of the headlight and then also one in the lower area opposite of the upper hole. Then you can stick the air line up to the upper hole and blow all the condensation out the lower hole. I then re seal the top hole only leaving the lower one so that it can drain if need be. Drill the holes as close the the lens as possible that way you cannot see the hole.

I used the hair dryer trick too (driving/fog lights).
