It amazes me that even the headlights on these cars are mini feats of engineering. A far cry from the spring and flimsy metal brackets I've seen on my GM cars. It should be said though the GM mounts, in the big picture, did fine - held the headlight in and could be adjusted when necessary.
I didn't see the crushed ice tip but someone suggested using dry rice.
Once the alcohol evaporated, the remaining water drops were cloudy so they were definitely carrying something (dust or chemical) from off the lens. I say if you want to do a quick fix, any of these suggestions are worth trying before shelling out the bucks for new.
I did this because the other headlight got smashed so I had no choice but to buy new. The car looked really odd with one frosted headlight and one clear. The two now look pretty close but they'll never be the same.
