Question

My car has allways been stored overnight in an underground garage. It was beeing repaired a few weeks back and was kept outside overnight. It came back with one headlight and one fog light lightly misted up with condensation in the inside.

Question - Will this condensation go of its own accord when the weather gets warmer? Or do I have to take the lights out and clean out the moisture?

What do you think?

Steve,
Moisture has entered the lights at some point.I suggest you take
the lights off and dry thoroughly.Then seal the edges of the lights with clear silicone before making sure the rubber covers
are properly located around the bulb opening when re-assembling.
