    Haya,

    ive an old mazda 121.

    Its in great shape, except that the windows are fogged up in the cold mornings. Im assuming its a window seal problem (no leaks and its foggy before i get in in the morning). Am i right?

    Is this a big deal, or should i have a go at it myself?

    Are seals easy to come by? (its the ford fiesta shape one)

    How much do you reckon?

    Thanks

    Its more than likely a water leak into the car through the rear tail lamps, its a regular weak spot with them. Window seals don't usually leak. If you dry out the car with a dehumidifier after fixing the leak the car shouldn't cause any more problems.

    It could be a crack in the lens of the lamp or just the seal behind the lamp. The lamp is held in by two or three nuts, open them and take the lamp out and replace the lamp or seal. Check inside where the spare wheel is too and see if the water is filling up in there.
