There is constant pool of water in both headlights. Every time I dry it up after few days is the same thing again. My Olds. Intrigue have vents to prevent condensation, but not Chrysler. Any idea how to fix it ?

Chrysler has a vent kit for these cars, don't know the number anymore, but it's just a matter of drilling a couple small holes and inserting the vent,, did it on my Acclaims,, helped a lot but not completely... Maybe ping Daniel J. Stern he is the resident lighting expert and may know this PN by heart !!!
I have a similar problem on my 91 Accl., though in the marker light assembly. Been through three blown bulbs because of it, and it seems like it happens randomly. Anyone out there in Usenet land know of a way these things can be modified to give them a vent or something, or even a fix to block where this moisture's coming from?

The corner marker that attaches to the front of the front fender and "rounds out" the corner where the headlamp meets the fender?
Not an endemic problem -- your corner marker lamp assembly has just come unsealed. Replace it; they're not expensive.
That's only applicable to the headlamps -- the marker lamps are supposed to be sealed.

I only use this like (rockauto) as it is the one I know,, I am sure there are lots of places these parts are available..
I put one in my last Acclaim before I got rid of it... can't speak for it's (sidemarker housing) longevity,, but seemed to fit ok,, I think the OEM part is about $50 US which I didn't want to spend as I was getting rid of the car anyway at the time.....
Headlights??... I don't think I would bother with generic crap either
You might know someone online that knows something about lighting and headlights maybe ask them .
