fogged rear light
« on: August 09, 2016, 03:37:20 pm »
hi all,

I have condensation / fogging on my NSR tail light. Any ideas of how to remove and prevent this in the future? It's proper annoying.

cheers

Need to take the light out completely.The gap is where the outer lens is meets the inside of the light

so blowing a hair dryer at it doesn't resolve the problem. I've take the light off the car and the bulbs have been taken out. i've tried putting air down the back of the light where the bulb would go and i've tried blowing air around the edges but none seems to be getting through.
