Just a suggestion. Put a subject in the subject line like

Squeaking brakes

instead of

Help

Need help immediately


or

If you don't help right away I will die!

Are you sure it's on the inside of the lense? As 350's do tend to have issues with the exterior of the headlight lense hazzing over. If that's the case, do a search, there's plenty of threads about it.

I just had this issue myself. More than likely your bulbs arent burned out, but your HID ballist, which is attached to the bottom of your headlight, has water in it. Your ganna have to take your headlights off your car, take off the ballast and let them dry out. Since i have no sun or warm weather, i used a work lamp that gets hot and it worked great. Why you have you headlights out, do the oven trick, take them apart and re-seal them. Dry them out first, which was hopefully obvious.

Hope this helps!
