Ok guys I need some help/ advice. Yesterday it rained out and i did some driving in it. Today when I went out one of my new spyder halo headlights had a lot of evaporation unit and it looks like a puddle at the bottom. I have driven in the rain before with no problems. I have had then for a few months. Some questions I have would be how do I fix this, I'm getting HIDs thursday and will it be a bad idea to leave it till I put them in either Thursday or Friday. And would this be covered under warranty?

Thanks

Aftermarket headlights need to be resealed as soon as you get them, that's just a fact. I could see daylight thru my new headlights.

Use RTV silicone around the seam of the lense.

 

Ok. How do I get the water out? And the longer it sits in there will it hurt anything?

 

2 options that I have done before...
1- Take the housing off the truck and take out one of the bulbs so you can see into the housing where the water is. Get a blow dryer and just blow into the hole until all the water is evaporated.
2- same as above but insted of blowing into one of the bulb holes, you can drill a small hole on the bottom of the lens where most of the water collects and use the blow dryer through there. when all the water is gone, just seal up the hole and around the rest of the headlight and you will be all set.

 

Damn..just looked at your pics of the lights and thats a lot of water! you might want to opt for the drill option as you can drain out most of it first.
For the question on time, you really dont want your bulbs exposed to that much moisture for a long period of time. They will get damaged a lot quicker/easier.

 

Thanks guys. The hard part is goin to be getting it out. I will prob drill but the halos and LEDs are spliced into the running lights so there is not much room there. As for the pic. You see mostly the evaporation on the lens but there is a slight puddle at the bottom. I'm getting HIDs in on Thursday so I hope it will be ok till then?

 

Yeah you can drill a little hole under the lens in the front right where the water is pooling up. Let it drain and then seal it up with clear RTV sealant.
