				Fog light bulb blown, due to condensation or rain in the fog light fitting. When i took the rubber off the back there was an accumalation of water in the rubber ,Does this mean the unit is caput ,or can it be repaired and resealed  

 . The other fog light is ok .

				Check the rubber grommet at the back of the light too andanden... you can use silicone sealent, or insulation tape at a push...

				Hi andy, is there any sign of a little cutout, or depression in the plastic where it can be pinched or maybe ease a little flat headed screwdriver into, to gently prise off the lens?

				bigdaddy no cutout or anything in the plastic. So rather than damage it  i decided to take the fitting off the front to get a good look at it. Took the lamp and the lamp holder out and gave the lense a good clean from the back of the fitting.Looks alot better now. Cheers Andy
