    fog in headlights

    is there a way to remove this?

    what causes it?

    leaking seal, etc. They should dry out. I assume you have ellips?

        you can take out the projectors and clean the back side of the lense. Use water and don't mess w/ the chrome parts, ie reflectors.

                    I don't remember if I made a thread about it but the lows are bosch smileys and the "highs" are us ellips, w/ 9005 (high beam bulbs) in them. The US ellips have laminx on them w/ yellow bulbs also.

                    the yellows are relly nice at night expecially when someone comin at you in the other direction w/ bright lights. The yellows make it a LOT easier to see the road w/ the bright lights in your eyes. the yellows are also nice in construction areas w/ all the barrels.

                      would you say they light is better than a beam that has a high beam lense?

                        well the yellows are still really bright BUT they have a cutoff so its fine to use them all the time if you want. Its not going to blind anyone but a midget laying on the ground.

                            If you know someone at a dealership ask them if they have a light refinishing setup that you can get them to do your lights with. A buddy has this at his work and what it is is a polish and three types of chemicals. You apply the first chemical, sand with 360 grit, apply the second chemical, sand with a higher grit, and so on until the last chemical. Then you polish and the glass, or some cases plastic, look brand spanking new. It is a really amazing kit, only problem is that it is like 1500 dollars to get..... :-(
