You probably don't see it on '97's much because there aren't too many '97+ out and they haven't be out long enough. New '92 SC's didn't have a problem either back in '92...

The seams get loose over time. I have re-siliconed one of my headlights and is has lessened the amount of moisture I get after a car wash...I suspect that if I do the ENTIRE topside of the headlight (I only did it up to the turn signal since I didn't remove the headlight), it will fix the problem....actually, I'm thinking about just doing a whole new set of headlights...then double sealing them before I put them in....

Exactly my thoughts Then polish up these 95s a tad and sell them to someone else whose are gone to hell (mine are in decent shape but I am a perfectionist).

Any links out there on how to take apart the lenses and clean them?

Also a rough idea on cost of new ones for a 92?

Thanks alot!
