What is the quick solution for foggy headlights?

The main causes of water vapor in headlights are temperature differences, improper car washing, and driving through deep water. Here are the methods to remove the fog: 1. For fog caused by temperature differences, turn on the headlights and high beams. After 10-20 minutes, the fog inside the headlights will gradually disappear. However, avoid baking the headlights under high temperatures, as headlight materials are usually plastic, and excessive heat may soften and deform the headlight surface. 2. For fog caused by water ingress from washing, rain, or driving through deep water, open the headlight dust cover and turn on the headlights. After about 10 minutes, the fog inside the headlights will start to disappear.
