My 2001 CR-V left side headlight got a lot of moisture in there. Was is causing it? I couldn't find a crack anywhere. I am cotemplating on drilling a couple of holes to let the moistere to escape.

Thanks.

I don't own a CR-V, but did have a 2005 Mits. Eclipse that I had that problem with. i asked the dealership what was causing it and after a few random excuses I came to the conclusion that they had NO IDEA. Anyhow, tried the holes as well, but it really doesn't work. I t does allow for the moisture to escape, but at the same time allows for the dust to come in and then stick to the moisture which leaves your headlight getting dirtier and dirtier... (dimmer and dimmer)

Best bet is to get a new assembley. Try the junkyard though, because you will be able to see if the light already has a problem with moisture before you buy it.

It wasn't a honda, but I had a trooper with the same problem. The light kept working just fine, so I never even bothered with it.

Just recently so much water gathered in our headlight that it splashed up and hit the bulb and blew it out! We had to drill holes under the light to drain the water before we could put a new bulb in it.
