sportsman 450 hid lights

Did the HID's and noticed today that I have some moisture in the headlights on the bumpers...

HID's are tight, got them twisted in there all the way...it's annoying to look at it...but I can live with it as long as it isn't damaging to the lights themselves?

Any input?

I noticed that in my low beams on the bike after I did the HID's.... I take the bulb out and let em dry out... It's annoying... I got water in them to before and they are bit dirty inside

drill a small hole in the housing, should keep things dry, may not be good for river crossings though lol

I don't have any major water pooling in mine, just the lenses are becoming fogged and have beads of water. As long as the moisture isn't going to damage the HID bulbs I'm not concerned...after I run the headlights a bit they dry out.

I may try taking the HID's out and smearing some silicone around the hole then putting the HID'S back in to see if that helps keep the little bit of moisture out.
