Hey all, my 2019 Golf R has a headlight suffering from excess condensation inside the lens. It started last Friday when it was humid, eventually went away but came back today. It was causing my headlight to short out for a bit, it is now working again.
I purchased some silica packs online as some folks have had success with that, however there seems to be little to no information on how to remove the dust cover or bulb from the factory LED headlights.
Anyone here have any experience? I’ll likely have to remove the bumper or go through the fender liner, but I just need some insight on how to actually remove the cover properly, images online make it look completely sealed.
Out of warranty, so I’m DIY’ing it before I shell out $1,700 for a new headlight. (First image is mine, second and third images are pulled from online to show the rear of the housing).
Thanks!
