How do I get rid of the condensation in the headlamp? I am thinking remove the bulb and try to dry out with wifes hair dryer on low and then ensure the rubber grummet is sealed properly.

Comments welcome
Cheers

Silica gel would indeed help dry out the headlamp if it's only got a small amount of moisture in it, but once the gel is saturated the condensation would return unless you sealed the grommet. I haven't had a problem with mine (yet), but I think I'd use clear silicone sealant around the inner ring of the grommet - should do the trick.

Cheers - did the hait dryer on low and seems to have sorted, have also siliconed round the grommet just to make sure!
