new projecctor halo prblems
alright, i have the newer style projectors with the ccfl halos and i have some issues with my lights. All the halo's work exept the one around the lobeam which is glowing lightly purple like they all did before they warmed up. All the other ones warmed up and are really bright but that one is not. Anyone else had a problem like this with the halo(s) not wrming up?

ya...i got them to work now .... unfortunately, as soon as i got home, they both had condensation in them ! the thing is, they seem to have already been sealed... wat should i do? i already took them out again so they wouldnt stay fogged up in the cold.... should i just go over the initial sealant with more silicon?

i got the old halos and in certain weather i get condensation in mine too. i got clear rtv to go over the seal. but i didnt use it yet. does anyone know if its just the type of plastic or there just not sealed all the way.

all the projectors fog up. The best thing to do is put some silica bags some where in the housing thats not visable and seal the edges with automotive goop. Keeps mine fog free.

The new projectors come with silica bags in them already. You should take them out and put new ones in because they are probably saturated and need new ones.

Take the cover off behind the high beam and you will see the silica bag on the bottom. Take it our carefully because if you rip the bag you will have little beads everywhere.....not that I did that or anything. *wink wink* LOL
