[QUOTE="ryclef331, post: 130617, member: 8067"] heating up the lights isn't that hard to do. I did it with my old Lexus to black out the housings. You COULD just reseal the outsides with some silicone but you could be still sealing water in them. Best thing to do is heat them up in the oven at 270 degree for about 5 minutes. WEARING OVEN MITTS, pull them out and pry the lens off with a screw driver....BE CAREFUL NOT TO CRACK THEM! The glue is still pretty damn sticky but workable. Dry out the housings completely. Reassemble and seal back up with some clear silicone. Option 2 is drill 2 small pin holes (one in the top to vent water vapor and one in the bottom to drain actual water that may get in there). When you're done washing the car, turn the lights on as you dry. The heat will help dry them out.... Option 3...buy new lights! [/QUOTE]
