MIne has a white powdery substance in it. Not sure what it is. Haven't tried snorting it, but haven't pulled the light out to look properly eitherHONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE

I have taken it off the car, blasted it with high pressure air, left it on a hot heater and stripped it down and it is like new! I think the problem might be there should be three long threaded bolts that attach the back plate to front and there was only one. If it does not fog up I am happy but I thought having a spare in the garage might be helpful.
I was thinking if someone was either breaking one or changing a bumper might have a spare.
Keep the thoughts coming

Dalek, you can strip the front fogs down, separate the glass front bit from the bulb and mounting part, give it a wipe out and Robert is your mothers brother.
They come off easily I recall, remove the front bezel and all will become clear.
This piccy might help
