    use a small drill bit and drill like 2-4 holes, there are a few spots in the fogs where you can see where the inner and outer lenses are a little more spread apart. thats where you want to drill

    can't you put moisture absorbing desiccant packets in the fogs behind the shrouds? you know the packets that come with new shoes lol

    that's what i did, It's called Bulb Grease, its sold at your local autozone. Your suppose to put the grease at the base of the bulb(893) and i even put some on the outside the bulb where it sticks out (if you already changed the bulb you'll know what i'm talking about). I haven't had the "Condensation" (lol @ family guy) problem at all.

    bulb grease prevents corrosion on the spades and terminal not condensation

    the problem is the condensation forms between the 2 leses there is a front plastic cover as well as individual ones for each light once you drill the couple holes it lets the mousture release

    hmmm bummer lol..... so just drill a hole to make air movement go through..... although i personally don't want to drill through my new style fogs...... there got to be another way...
