Fog light condensation and fillign w/ water

Hey one of my fogs gets condensation bad and actually noticed it was half full of water the other day. I'm still under bumper to bumper but dont want to deal with leaving my car and getting a loaner etc. Is there an easy way to fix this myself? I had LED bulbs if that makes a difference.

I'd take out the fog light housing and see if there's a seal issue or glass issue and address it from there.

Most likely a seal issue.

Since you replaced the bulb I would check and see if the rubber seal that goes into the housing is torn or if it's in all the way.

The dealer also might decline to fix this under warranty since you replaced the bulbs...
