96 Explorer ...had moisture due to crack in the plastic housing where the nut forces the bulb in. I came across this site by chance and read the comments several people made about this problem....Saved me $60 ,,,just drill hole in housing so the moisture can vent out..and small hole in bottom of lens so water can drain......seems to work so far!! I like practical solutions. This is my 5th Ford...my first was a 1956 Ford Fairlane in 1966 when I was just starting college. I sold my first Exlpoer at 240k miles, my Ford Colony Park at 260k miles and my current 1996 explorer has 135k miles....and I love the reliability...zero leaks ever, original radiator, water pump, suspension...etc. My 1999 BMW 740il is one hell of a machine and a gas to drive....but not nearly as reliable as my trusty Ford that also pulls my 17ft boat. Thanks for being here with some info that already helped me. HENRY
