What a mess!!! My driver's side headlight has been taking on water/condensation. So I searched for a new/used one on eBay. This is for a 2010 CX9 grand touring with the factory HID. Seller advertised an 09 with HID and that it would fit through 2012. Got a good deal on it. Took the freaking bumper off tonight to install headlight (that is crazy) and then realized the used one doesn't have the HID ballast screwed on the bottom like my original. Investigated some more and it appears to be a regular halogen assembly. It has a the H11 for low beam.
So I proceeded to try to reseal my original HID light. The dealer did it once and it lasted for a few years.
Couple questions after this ordeal... does anyone know if the 2009 HID assembly is in fact the same one for 2010 like the eBay seller advertised? I want to have them pick this light up and give me money back....it was not as described. They said it would come with HID ballast, bulb, etc.
Has anyone had any luck sealing up a headlight and stopping condensation/water?
Thanks,
Deanne
