   Hey,
   
   One of my headlights (Driver side) is fogging up or getting condensation in it ? Is there any way to stop this ?

   You might have a crack in your lens or else there is water getting in the back, so either a new head light or get the rubber grommet for the back of it (if it missing)

   This is taken from the angel eyes wiring guide, might help:

   Steamed up lenses: If fitting your angel eyes on a hot day you shouldn't have any problems with the lenses steaming up.. if you notice over time that the lenses of the angel eyes becomed steamed up when in use (especially during cold whether) there is a simple solution! Remove the rubber cover from the back of the headlight (covers back of headlight).. hold a hair dryer in the back of the headlight until the air inside the headlight is warm, this will make any water vapour inside the light condense and escape the light... then refit the rubber plug before allowing it to cool.. this should prevent any further steaming up issues
