Water in my headlight. What should i do?
I took it to the body shop to get the front bumper repaired. I got the car back went to wash it and water got into my headlight. Do u think they would have taken my headlight out to take off the front bumper? or could they have damaged it? or a weird coincidence? Well i am trying to figure out if i should fix it or bring it back down there. If i fix it how should i go about it?

Start by checking the parking light plug. It's not easy to install and may not be seated
all the way. The plugs should be pointed straight down IIRC. I'd also check the rubber gaskets around your bulb covers where the wiring harness plugs in to make sure they aren't buggered up.

Probably. It's easy to remove the headlights and would probably make bumper work much easier.
The tough part is getting the parking bulb holder into the headlight housing. If that holder isn't seated all the way, moisture could get passed it.
