^+1 I would also inspect for any cracks. A single one could fog up your entire light. Also, aftermarket lights are also very prone to this as well, are yours still OEM?

yeah mine are OEM.... well i really dont wanna have to crack them open because i dont know how to reseal them... any chance of finding a good cheap set anywhere? what if i pulled the light bulb out of the light itself and allowed air to circulate? think it would evaporate?

thats one possibility for the headlights...tail lights would need something different...probably a crack inspection of some sort

looks like you have a 96 front, you can do a 98+ conversion and say fuck the middle man

First inspect for cracks on both head and tail lights
If none are found its the lenses to back plastic seals themselves The RIGHT way to fix this is to set your oven to about 250*F and let them in there for like 10-15min then pull them apart and re seal.
Now there is another option, silicone. Pick up a big tube of black RTV silicone at home depot or lowes (the container that goes in the caulk gun). Now use that and seal all around the join where the lense meets the back plastic. Now for some extra insurance get some silica gel packets and stick them in the lights (if I remember right you cant get them in the rear lights, but the headlights have a area behind the projectors that arnt visible to the outside where a silica gel packet can sit.
