Well nice to see you back Monique. I must say it is ghost city in here. You must know the truth. Ok RXH8TED is smuggling illegal immigrates thats why he is so busy. Skwidd is sprung out on crack and all those times he been talking about painting one of his rooms in his house on the weekends that why he never had free time to hang out uh...... yeah right more like he was painting his noise white lol. Whody finally found somebody who was throwing a crawfish boil cuz he was getting so bored. Sorry to say but he was so excited that somebody had one an he was eating so fast he choked on a crawfish tail R.I.P Whody. 300fps little fury friend on his avatar ran away last month an he's been looking for the little guy ever since. I didn't want to tell him this fearing that he might hang himself with one of the hoses off the fire truck but RXH8TED ran over the little dude in his 8 bout 4 days ago doing what he does best smuggling those illegals *sigh* hahahaha! The other cats I didn't mention well one probably jumped off a cliff and the others followed monkey see monkey do. Well I guess that bout sums it up Monique.

headlights

does anybody know anything about this headlight cloud recall?

i have like 60k miles, and my headlights have had this film since at least 30k miles.. i'm just now hearing about some type of recall, and on top of it, i just noticed WATER LEAKING INTO MY DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT

let me guess, they're gonna tell me they would have replaced it at 30k, and now i'm out of luck? i hear these lights cost like 600

Looks like you got a crack in the plastic seam in the headlight which is causing it. I heard a few people getting it replace under warranty.

yeah, i just observed the **** out of it and blasted water on it and apparently no more water is creeping in..

if you take out your bright light bulb, you can obviously access the innerheadlight that way.. i took a coat hanger and applied a microfiber rag and got a lil down and dirty.. i do see some straight line minor *** looking notches... no cracks

i'm thinking about taking the ******* headlight out and applying some liquid cement around that biatch

well, at night with the lights on, you can see a film of yellowish stuff on the inside. it's been like that since i got the car basically, and is uncleanable.

now water is leaking in from apparently no where.

the question is will they replace it at 60k miles

No. You should of took it in when it first happen. If the dealer where you go to is the one where you get all your services done is real cool or your cool with one of the service guys back there. They may let you slide an get it replace. Thats all I can give you dude. Good luck.

does your car still have warrenty or are u out of warrenty?
FYI, if it was just the yellow tint, I have a cleaning solution....or rather had, a bottle or cleaning solution, that u have to rub on for like 5-10mins, and it would draw the yellow stuff through the pores of the plastic.....i had to do it on the work truck once.


and welcome DSM outlaw

Well, to finally answer rxh8ted's question, I have the same warranty as everybody else.. so I'm guessing my car isn't under warranty lol.

Instead of buying a new headlight without xenon bulbs and exchanging mine, and instead of paying 600+ for a new headlight, I've decided to seriously superglue the light.

There is no possible place it could be leaking other than where the plastic lens meets with the rubber seal, sort of on the top right corner of the light. I'm going to apply a thin layer of sealant in the crack of the seal and plastic and hope for the best...
