taillight water condense
I found some water condense in the turn signal of the taillight. I want to clean them with a paper towel. But I cannot reach the outtest side of the lens. Seems there is a lens in the center and block me to reach the outtest lens. Any help???

I had an idea on this.... you know those little packets of stuff that come in electronics boxes that say "do not eat"?? THose absorb moisture. WHy not stick a couple of those in the lamp housing. like roll it up and stick it in theu the light hole. It shoudl just sit in the bottom of the housing, and not harm anything.... what do you think?

Those little stuff are called cellica gel -- if I recall correctly. Try to put them in a pan and heat them up. They turn pink. If you wet them, they turn blue -- or is it the other way round?
They will not help much since they can only absorbe a little bit of water -- previous experience with camaras in south east asia and getting them wet. Anyway, this is what I did. Take them out, look for a drill and drill a couple of holes in them. The H2O will go away soon Lwin
