The lights fog up already from condensation. :(

 

Ahh... All aftermarket lights must be sealed!

 

Take them off, blow them out and let them sit for a day or two... Once they are completely clear, go around the edge where the plastics meet and seal them with some Clear RTV

I actually found that moisture issue years ago on a set of cheap Blazer® brand fog lights. Auto-Zone at the time had a really thin silicon that flowed that I used and NEVER had the issue after that. I sold that truck 12 years ago and they are STILL on it.

Truck looks like a$$ but the fog lights are still clear! lol

 

I like the look! Updates it a bit IMO.

Sorry... nothing else to explain. That is all there is to it. Blow them out (air compressor) and let them sit until it is all gone. Then get some Clear RTV available at any auto parts store and seal them up.

I dont know how to get the sealent in there. There is sround around the bulb. ad for some reason i think it was liking somewhere else. I dobt know i might give it a try if they dont call me back to return them.

See if there's a little "weep" hole in the bottom of the housing somewhere. The depo lights I put in my vette have a little hole that I assume is to let moisture escape. I really ought to seal them up, though, come to think of it.
