    Installed Titanium Single Xenons Yesterday, Now Fogging

    I did not buy them new and it has been raining all last night and all day today...the drivers side is worse than the other. EVEN IF, I got the dealer to replace them, since they are the titanium headlights, they wouldnt be able to get these for me would they?

    If your ballast is on the bottom of the housing, the "O" ring replacement described for S4 housings, does not apply. If your housings have the ballast mounted on the large single housing rear cover like the S4 housings use, then the O ring fix will apply.
    But regardless, make sure the covers are sealing tightly around the entire cover gasket. You can bend the retainer wire clips a little to have more pressure against the covers when installed. The Second thing is to apply a thin bead of sealant around the lens/housing joint. While the housings are being checked, make sure ALL of the moisture is dried from inside, there is water trapping areas especially in the forward bottom of the lens.
    PM me for additional information.

    Re: Installed Titanium Single Xenons Yesterday, Now Fogging

    the exact O-Ring fix might not apply but fogging is basic physics. It's just condensation from the light not being sealed up properly so check your light, seal the shit and you're good to go
