    Water in Low beam lens?

    Hmm, seems to be that my drivers side low beam has a shit load of water in it.. Almost half way full. Really curious as to how it would of managed to get in there? Any suggestions? Doesnt seem like its a good thing at all..
    Oh and just so i dont have to start another topic, my coolant level was really low. So i topped it up with water. Should i have done the 50/50 antifreeze water, or is just water fine? Perhaps ill add some antifreeze, but i heard you shouldnt do that.

    If you have a 90 with stock lights it s sealed beam. Replace it for $5.

    Water is fine.

      Just replace the lens? I think im going to invest in ellip's in spring.
      But for 5 bucks, might aswell do it for now. Not like its a hard hit at the wallet, just to experience an even harder hit when i get new lights.
      Thanks Jordan.

        The whole sealed beam is a sealed unit.. you just replace the whole unit.

        Pretty much the only upside to having a sealed beam equiped car.
