View Full Version : Water inside of parra/headlight
Hi all, washed my car yesterday at one of those car wash places with the high pressure hoses (done it several times before) Today i noticed a bit of water/condensation build up inside my parra :( Whats the easiest way to clean it out (Preferably without taking it all out, but i doubt it)

It will dry out after a few days, mine used to do it lots.

If you have it get any worse in future let me know and ill show you the parts of the headlight that could be leaking and how to minimise it, but until then dont worry.

It will dry out, but if you want to stop it happening you will need to remove the headlight from the car, use a heatgun or an oven to melt the adhesive sealing the lens, you then pull the lens off, clean the mating surfaces and apply some new adhesive (preferably polyurethane clear adhesive) or you can just use Silicone.
Thats assuming the old adhesive is what is letting the water in.

Use a heat gun asap so the silver doesn't tarnish.
