Lightforce 140 condensation
Hello, I have 4 lightforce 140 in the front grill of my discovery, they have the lightforce covers on them. Every time it rains or I was the truck I get condensation in them. Does anyone have the same problem with there lightforce spots and is there any I can stop this from happening?

Probably needs drying properly, or the o ring on the mounting is u/s. You can unscrew the main light body from the mounting boss to check. Perhaps put some Vaseline or similar on the threads to help it seal?
This is what it looks like with the lamp unscrewed.

Ah I see. Par for the course I'm afraid. My 140's did it, so did my 170's, now my 240's do it. Only answer is to pull them off,and wipe them clean.
Ah well, I was hoping thee was miracle cure for this as my newly fitted 170s are misting up in France, I think it's due to recent humidity rise, yrs ago I had an anti fog cream for my bike helmets has anyone tried to apply anything to prevent the condensation?
