Any help or insight is greatly appreciated on this matter. The last thing I want is foggy headlights.
Yes, you will have to re-bake to seal them up again. I also recommend going around the seal with silicone sealant as well. Just be sure to do a nice job around the area that you can see when the hood is up.
