does anybody know how to get moisture out of the lenses? my driver's side headlight is all cloudy from it.
i started messing with it the other day, and it kinda looks sealed. that can't be. help me out here.....

it is sealed.... you can remove the bulb and try to get something in there like compressed air or something and try to seal it with silicone at the seams.... but other than that, there really isnt too much that can be done....
 












I dont even bother with it, I just replace them when they yellow out like that. In fact, I have to order both sets of front turn signals for the Explorer because they're getting dingy.
 






Yea my headlights were all messed up i. you could hardly tell my headlights were on.. so i ordered new ones from ford for 63$ a peice and its a night and day difference.

PEACE
 






i've got the same problem w/my headlights. I was thinkin about takin them out and cleaning them and re sealing them but i haven't had time.
 






Look on e-bay, sometimes you can find a pair for 85$. It's still cheaper than getting them from ford.
 






not quite sure how they come out though???
 






My wifes Windstar is really bad too, was thinking of something like a giant Q-tip and stick it in from the bulb hole to clean it out... Headlight housings for it are even worse at the dealer.
