I have had my Marauder for 4 months now and ever both headlamp assemblies are always foggy. I don't want to give it to the dealership for 3 days to fix it, but will probably have to. I was just wondering if anyone else had same problem??

Pretty much all of us..........................I fixed my own while I had them out for bulb replacement(to Silverstars)

I'd rather the dealer replace them AFTER they've had 20,000 miles of bug and road grit blasting than now wile they're still good(looking)

What I found was they aren't sealed all the way around. After drying them REALLY well I used clear silicone sealer and took my time and put a really nice bead all the way around. Let 'em dry awhile and now they're fine.

The new ones the dealer will put in are the same as what you have and may be a temporary fix..............

Here's a link to that problem, and several others. Included are FSB or 'Ford Service Bulletin' numbers. They'll tell your dealer to fix it on warranty, and what the part numbers are.

....and it shouldn't take 3 days. An hour max! Or, like the honeymooner - do it yourself!

Thanks, also, and I don't want to sound stupid, but what is 300A and 300B?
