One of my lights has shown a little fogging too, I might try the silica option, as long as there is not much water in the casing. Tom

The only problem with putting silica jel packs in the units is if the leak persists that causes the condensation the silica jel becomes saturated and requires drying to restore it moisture absorption properties.
How do you dry the jel packs?

think the gel packs were only designed for misting up problem, not full on leak/water in lamp unit You can paypal direct using - www.paypal.me/duckworthparts

Where do you put the silica gel packs in light as they are sealed? Into where bulbs go? Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

Big help ! Wasn't sure what to do re misting up on drivers side rear lights.
The pics are really useful

or they could just make the lights work as they should? Range Rover 4.4 V8 Vogue

^^^ couldn't agree more.
If they used a decent, long lasting adhesive to glue the two halves together it wouldn't happen.

I saw a good tip for this on another car forum, they were using fishing line tied to a silica bag , drop this into via one of the bulb holders and you can remove it as and when you please.
