Just passed MOT but got an advisory for condensation in both front fog lights.

Any ideas or quick fixes?

Cheers Wink

Well i know for sure that running them for couple of hours wont work if you dont do it offten or i have even heard an advise to use hairdryer Very Happy it will come back.
As far as i know the problem is becouse moisture gets inside.
So far i have have heard two possible fixes:
Putting a smear of silicone around the bulb holders
Putting a silca gel pack in for a day or two
My personal advice
Have a look at them maybe there is not enough seal araund the glass and there are some small holes that need to be filled.
Anyway good luck whit that, tell us the final answear as well Wink

Good advice above, stick them in the airing cupboard for a couple of days to dry them first.
