Can anybody tell me what causes clear corners to fog up and how to fix them so they don't? I bought a set about two weeks ago and one of them is fogging up now.

I know condensation is the end result, but didn't know why there were condensing. Wasn't sure if they were suppose to be sealed up or not. I had a guy tell me to drill a hole on the bottom to let in air so they wouldn't fog up. That didn't make much sense to me but figured I would post and see what some folks out there thought.

If your corner markers are getting condensed(I'm assuming they're clear corners since the same happened to mine, but not my stockers) get some wetsand paper and lightly sand them, that should take the yellow crap off. Then add some more silicone to seal em up well.

had same prob with mine, i took them out and filled with water to find leak then i could seal it up. shake out as much of water as possible then blow dry with compressed air. i poured some rubbing alcohol in them to evaproate trace water that was left, make sure the air compressor has had condensation drained from tank recently or has a water seperator on it like you would use to paint with
