Right lads. Ever since I put on the clear projector indicators, the passenger side keeps misting up. I'll take it off, air it,clean it, put it back on and as soon as I've been out in the motor again, it feckin' mists up.

I've tried grains of rice, toilet paper etc. There's a wee vent thingy with a bent rubber hosing on it. Am I meant to be doing something with it?

Also, I'm sure we're all used to the "getting called a wanker and having to put up with all other road users thinking were right cnuts all the time" syndrome, but in bright sunlight and with the misting, some people cant see the indicator flashing. As a result, I appear to be getting the finger on a daily basis.

Any tips before I twat next the fecker that gives me the finger?

By the way, I'm pretty sure its not the Projector units that are faulty, but I just wonder if its linked to the GruppeM sucking air right behind it?

I too had a similar issue with my old set (usually mists up after I washed my car). First I sealed the bulb holder bit with duct tape and I also used some clear (kitchen) sealant around the edges where the clear plastic is bonded onto the inner housing.
