First water got inside my Driver's side parking/tuning sections of my clear corners. So I sealed that one up on the outside (left the vent holes open). It leaked again after a carwash. So then i completely sealed them, and it still fogged up. During this 2-3 weeks of insane frustration I noticed the chrome paint (or reflective background in the clear corner) bubbled and ran. (it had some water and that side of the truck gets sun all day.
So It looks like I can still save this light if I'm able to re-paint the 2 sections that the paint bubbled and melted or ran.
If I can get the light apart what type of paint would i need?
Note: My passenger side headlights are perfectly fine. No leaks or condensation.
I plan to remove both headlights and re-bead around the seems just incase. This will be the 5th time I'd had the headlights off the truck, and it hasnt been ran much since i bought these ***** headlights. My tails just went in the trash too. So I'm hoping to fix these. I will get pics shortly as I need to run to autozone to buy gaskets for these lights if i can find any.
