Got a little problem with my right front headlight. I washed the car a few weeks ago and some moisture leaked into the headlight, i have a permanently fogged headlight and scared of the winter when it freezes in there. Anyone know how to deal with this porblem?
let me know, THANKS

if your car is under warranty, bring it back to the dealer and have them replace the headlight.

Moisture = headlight seal broken most likely...happened to me after angel eye install. I just got it resealed yesterday.

I had this on my old car.. you need to get the moisture out and try to re-seal.. for me.. that didn't work, so what I did was, and this is only what I did.. was drill 2 - 3 small holes in the bottom of my headlight, this allowed mositure to leak out and kept my light from fogging up. Now, this also was done on an 2001 Saturn.. so for me.. it wasn't a big deal.. not to sure how you feel about doing that and I can't say that it will def work on the M3 lights..

happened to me when i installed angel eyes as well. I put a small bead of silicon around the seal for the healight where the black plastic meets the clear plastic, lick ur finger and run it along that bead u placed. This should seal it, atleast it worked for me. Assuming a broken seal is ur issue.
