The inside of the lens of exterior lights
such as headlights may temporarily fog up
when the lense becomes wet in the rain
or in a car wash. This is not a problem
because the fogging is caused by the
temperature difference between the outside
and inside of the lense, just like the
windshield fogs up in the rain. However, if
there is a large drop of water on the
inside of the lense, or if there is water
pooled inside the light, contact your
Toyota dealer.Light bulbsBulbNo.WTy p e
