Re: Mist Inside Headlight

its condensation, my tailights had this cuz the side marker light fell out, but anyways
take it off ur truck, take it inside and hold a hair dryer up to the holes for the turnsignal, hi/low beam headlight holes, should evaporate it and it should be good as new. careful not to melt anything though, it takes a bit of time

I would say just drill a small hole so the water/condensation can drain out so you won't have that problem anymore.

it's condesation from the sun rising and hitting ur headlight in the morning and warming it up faster than the air around it. because my dad's truck tail light does the same thing.
