Headlight refurb

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Is there anyone on here that refurbishes headlights?

I've got UK spec glass ones and the passenger one is always full of condensation, if I take it off and dry it out it's fine for a couple of days but then get wet again. 

I have tried sealing around the bulb sockets etc but still no joy, the drivers side has no issues at all.

Thanks.

Hi Noz,

The problem is with the nearside headlight. It is always full of condensation and the insert is starting to colour up around the outer edge (looks like rust).

I have tried siliconing around all of the bulb holders because I read somewhere that there are different size bulb fittings!

My next option was to seal around the outer edge but I thought I might get some ideas here first, either way the headlight will need some sort of refurb.

The offside light is perfect, it has the same bulbs fitted but no sign of condensation or corrosion at all.

Cheers.
