Rodney is of course correct.
I suspect the issue is the projector lenses which may not be the quality the seller suggests. I am in now way disparaging him or the lights themselves which are a huge upgrade from stock halogens.
My problem is getting L/R adjustment.

The projectors are not of the Best quality and this summer i might pull them apart and see if they can be replaced.
However, I did change out the crappy HIDs with some Morimoto ones and that made a difference.
RE: Headlights fogging, I have never had that issue, but i assume that the cover in the back is not on properly?

Will post pics of my ride after i buff it. Ill check the cover on the back. I might add a bead of silicon along the exposed half of the hl, seal it better maybe. I will check the screw cap on the back before I try anything else.
As far as them not being the best quality projectors, I have no idea what you mean, all hl are just plastic housings. So long as it doesn't leak and you can aim the beam somewhat, nothing else matters....

NO LONGER ACTIVE
No problems with fogging at all. I only have a few minor complaints about these lights. First, the high beam pattern is a bit odd. It's more focused than high beams should ne , and they are aimed slightly too high in relation to the low beams. My other complain is more a personal preference, but I don'd care for the style of the park lights. I wish that illuminate more of of the area around the high beams like OEM headlights. Otherwise, I think they are a nice upgrade over OEM halogen headlights for a fraction of the cost of OEM HIDs.

The fogging went away on its own. Thank God. I didn't really do anything other than open the back of the unit in the garage for a day. But it fogged that day too, so not sure why\how but it no longer fogs up anymore!
