just installed a set of tyc bi-halogen headlights in my 2014 ram 1500 big horn and i noticed some condensation forming on the bottom of the inside of the lens. has anyone had this problem in the past and does anyone know a good fix? i sent a message to retroshop where i bought them but being as i am tremendously impatient, i figured i would ask you guys. also the kit came with two resistors for each lamp. when the lights are on for any time one resistor gets burning hot while the other is ice cold. any ideas? thanks in advance.

To prevent condensation the vents on the rear of housing need to be opened up a little,
often they are pushed on too tightly from the factory.

See JJ's youtube (fast forward to the 6:30 mark)

I would imagine the Low beam resistor would get a lot hotter than a park/signal lamp.
