Not sure if this has been touched on here (did the search option, couldn't find anything)

Was driving home last night In a snow storm where the snow was very very wet. Wasn't a big deal. Until I virtually had 0 headlights. I thought I blew a fuse it was so dark. Pulled over to see if the lights were functioning, only to find about half an inch of ice built up on the headlamps... Had to stop and wipe them off 3 times in about 15 minutes to make it home safely. Has anyone experienced this? Was it just the perfect Ivey / wet snow combo? If anyone has experienced this what did you do to rectify the problem? I was thinking coating them with either a Teflon or something.

2022, 2 door Big bend.

Thanks

I have my truck coated twice with a ceramic and was able to drive through the huge storm that hit buffalo last week no problem. Could be that attributing to lack of buildup. Id definitely recommend doing that to see if helps.

Yep, we’ve had a few threads over the years. Don’t worry though, someone from the South assured us it’s not a problem.

The taillights ice over as well. I have only had it happen during the day but it's only a matter of time until it happens at night.
