I got a set of those smoked projectors off of ebay and 2 weeks after putting them on my car they started fogging up inside.Now my old stock lights dont seem to bad.They look wack at night cause u can see the fog.Has anybody had this problem with these new aftermarket projectors?

I think i may have teh same ones and i have not had that problem, but you could run a bead of silicone arounf teh glass and any other openings and that should fix it.

I think i got a bad set,so i emailed the seller about the problem so we'll see.You dont have any kind of haze on the inside of your lens?Someone told me from heat of the bulb it can happen.

its moisture in the headlight housing. the gaps must not be sealed properly...as the guy above said, look into sealing the joins with silicone when the headlights are totally dry inside and out and clean

HID retrofitters often like to embed silica gel in the housing somewhere to absorb extra moisture, even after sealing it.
