Headlights and Eyelids Problem

I m having problems with my driver's side blacked out headlights from DEPO. that light keeps on fogging up. Any suggestions to stop that?

and the RRM's CF eyelids looks great but the driver's side sticks out no matter how hard I try to readjust. It seems like it is a defect or it warped? Will heating make it soft and fit betteR? i m akward with this.

the fog problem is pretty much a pain, I have same problems with taillights. First time I used a air compressor to dry it out then I simply used silicone to seal it all up. Now my other light is foggy so I may try something else, there is a trick to bake em in oven to remove seal and re-seal it. someone else could expand on that. I have the cf eyelids and they fit great so it is probably warped a little, I say try heating it.....but be carefull. dont wanna break a $70 item.

fogging can be fixed using the oven trick~ just preheat ur oven to 275f, place ur headlight on a cookiesheet with a slightly wet towel on the cookies so ur headlight wont dry up too badly in the oven or the plastic stickin to the cookiesheet. bake for 5-10 mins and try to press the headlight together with ur powerful arms~
