moisture in headlamp. are they fugged?...
brand new ecodes, had to modify bottoms to fit ballasts, but sealed up with masking tape and electrical tape...darn good seal, overlapped and everything. what other spots could leak moisture? i'm not ruling out the bottom, but how would I know if that is it or not? this is first real rain since install. tia.

You might want to check with some more knowledgeable guys, but i heard you just drill a small hole
in the headlight to let the moisture out.....
That's what I saw on some Hot Rod show on tv...I am not fully sure though,
Sorry I can't be of more help...
By the way..What's an ecode?

how much work are you up to?....edit
remove them from the car and put them in an oven at 120°F or as low as you can above this. or get a vacaum cleaner, you can blow with, and blow air into the enclosure. don't put it in a microwave! what ever you do seal the thing with silicone or epoxy!!

Lose the tape & use pliable windshield sealant (dum dum) - it comes in a roll. Also (more)...
... if you don't have the city lights installed, make sure that hole is blocked w/ a dab, as well. If you modded the US corner bulb holder to fit the Euros, it won't seat very well, either. Again - use a little piece of "dum dum" to make sure it's sealed up good.
Good luck.
Good luck.
