In need of CAV Headlight - LHD
All, does anyone have a NIB CAV headlight for a US car? One of mine is cloudy & opaque. Looks to me like the bulb exploded, but the high & low beams are still working. Can't explain it. Thanks,
Tom

Aren't they a modern design that uses a H4 or similar bulb? Sounds like moisture is in the headlight shell, pull the bulbs and dry it out.

Tom,

This same thing has happened to me, after washing my car.

Ron's suggestion should cure the problem. Stick a hair

dryer up to the bulb opening, and see if that helps.
