I have a problem with water accumulating in the car's left headlight recess after I wash it. Then when I take it for a spin with the lights on, dirty water messes up my wax job. Is there a drain located somewhere in there that may be clogged or do I need to drill one?

Also for you guys across the "pond"...I regulary fly into London (once a month) and am interested in touring the Lotus factory. Do they offer tours and if so is it worth the trip?

Thanks,

GREG

Greg,

There is a drain hole in the bottom of each light pod housing. A piece of stiff wire such as a coat hanger will clear the debris and allow it to drain. You may have to disconnect the control arm for the pod and open it manually to get enough room to maneuver the wire into the hole.

Hope this helps.

A coat hanger will work. I slide it through a drinking straw so I do not mar the finish when I use with the light pod up.
