Does anyone know of a way to seal up the headlights better and help keep condensation from building up? Neither one of them has cracks but they both have a lot of condensation inside. I've already lost one
bulb recently to the moisture inside.

Thanks.

This is a common problem on the early classics. Tere are detailed procedures on www.SE-R.net (http://www.SE-R.net) to fix it.

Cool, I found the answer in the FAQ. I guess the solution is to replace the light assemblies. Thanks for the help.

It is a very common problem in the early years like was said earlier. I had to replace mine too. It's just one of those things where you don't wanna spend the money.

93 SE-R with 91 SR20DE. When you're driving an SE-R, you're living. Everything else is just waiting.

Thinkin of suspension....

No you don't need to replace them. You can pop the front lens off clean out the inside and reseal the lens on with clear silicone.

Good deal, I'll give that a try. It sure will be cheaper than replacing them if it works.

Like 93 mentioned before, it's one of those things you don't want to spend money on.
