    Question water/fog in LED tails

    anyone had this problem? remedies besides replacing the whole light? its occurring on the driver side only and ive been thinking of getting a set of used eagle eyes but ive heard of their inferior quality so id rather get my current oems fixed if possible. any and all input appreciated.

    I def wouldn't get "used" LED eagle eyes. I had new and never had a problem. I like your idea of looking into getting new ones fixed...but you need to figure out how the water got in there also...first.

    Like Dane said do not go with a "used" set. I would pick up a new set. How about removing the lights to see if the rubber gasket is pinched?

    I've had some water vapors in my drivers side tail. This might have caused shorts in 3 or 4 of the led lights which i plan on replacing. i'll probably doing a dyi if successful in the coming months.
