Hi Guys,
had a problem with condensation in driver side headlight. Having searched the internet for tips with little or no joy as to an easy fix I popped the bonnet and had a look at the structure of the headlight housing setup. I was drawn to the two black screw caps at the back of the headlight, which allows access to the bulb area. After a bit of head scratching I came to the conclusion that if both were removed this would allow some airflow into the sealed unit, ( hopefully ). Took the plunge and removed both, then left the car overnight and drove to work and back the next day, assuming warm air generated by engine running may help. Happy to say seems to have done the trick, headlight not showing any signs of water/condensation, black threaded covers replaced, hopefully problem solved.....
