Headlight Problem
Noticed my left headlight went out a couple of days ago and I found water inside of it not much but enough to cause a problem. Water prob got in due to the plastic covering I'm missing above the wheel. Headlight is working again but I was wondering is there a way to dry the inside out without completely taking the whole headlight apart which I prob can't do without baking it..any ideas?

Since the headlight is now working, it probably did dry-out. However, you probably can expect this to happen again unless you determine what caused the first occurrence. That might mean a disassembly to discover the last “dousing.” If it’s obvious already (you mention noticing something), fix-it so you don’t have the light go out again and to avoid inevitable damage (that always happens when moisture invades a place where it should not be).

rockauto.com has the fenderliners for a great price. A few months ago I bought a pair for my '08, and they were ~$40 shipped. Not exactly OEM, but you'll never notice the difference, and the fit is perfect.
