?? Clouded Headlights ??

[Bimati]

Couple of things:

If the cloudiness is condensation (water), park in the sun on a warm, dry day and take both the headlight bulb and the horn bulb out. The low colorado humidity will evaporate anything on the inside of your headlight. I just did this because I washed the inside of my headlights out with distilled water (long story) and they were foggy afterwards. Worked great.

The other issue is, when you replaced your horn lights, did you use 194 biulbs or 168's? The 168's are too large and hot and will burn contact holes in the upper headlight allowing it to fog the area (this is the reason I replaced my headlights in the first place.

Just my 2 cents.

Edit: One more (obvious) thing....look closely to make sure it's on the inside and not exterior weathering. Sometimes you have to look closely.

after u get the water out, try to seal any holes so it wont happen again.

I just replaced my dim stock horn lights with some 11 watt Malibu bulbs from Home Depot.

Should I be worried about excessive heat in the horn?

someone may correct me - but, i think that 11w may be a bit too warm for the horn.

11w seems more appropriate for the bumper's round indicators.

I ruined two headlights trying to get brighter horns trying different bulbs....I'm sticking with 194's forever.

try LED horn lights, they dont heat up at all

I've tried many different LEDs in the horns and none I have found are as bright as filament 194's.....unfortunately....
