You can drill a hole in the top of the light to allow the moisture to escape. After the lens is clear, use a rubber plug to seal the hole you drilled. I did this on my wife's car a few years ago and it works fine.

Any ideas on removing the moisture from your front park lights/turn signal lens? When my KK was under warranty last summer the dealer replaced the lens on both sides, but now the winter weather has them with moisture again on the inside. Wondered if there is a fix other than replacing the lens and spending $$$? |

well my suggestion would be place it in a dry spot... maybe a garage and put up the heat... get the moisture out... then use silicon around the edges... if the lightgs were relaced i dont see a reason for having moisture in it again... |

I suppose probably the only way to fix the moisture is to to get the lens open (hole or take apart somewhow) and let it dry out- when the dealer replaced them last summer he said it would just do it again- as even the hot summer heat had not dried it out- it is not a big deal, but just disappointing that the design allows this to happen.
