Some people said they found condensation but then it goes away and doesn’t come back. Anybody has issues with regular condensation? Mine had no condensation when parked in he garage but it regularly has it when parked outside. In all weather conditions - after it rains, cold weather, humid, etc. At this price, I expect a much better quality!

Just ordered these and will install them in a day or 2! I originally ordered the HRS clear version which is basically a mock of these, but their new shipment had a lot of defects so they instantly refunded me and I got these instead. I was on the fence about the reflector sections but they're not a big deal tbh

Just got mine in! I’ll be installing them tomorrow. Any tips on getting that interior panel down for the hatch reflector parts?

Curious when you ordered. I am waiting on a container to come in apparently.

most people say condensation is normal, but dont say a word of it never coming back, wouldnt make sense to happen once and than be miracly go away....

I actually purchased mine from a guy who sold his car while waiting for these to arrive. Luckily for me he had them new in box

I think it comes back, but they just don't bother posting about it. Light condensation is never normal. It means substandard quality. I've had many cars, and never had condensation issue, except the G35 when I opened up the housing to do some mod to it and not sealing it back up properly. My stock tail light didn't condensate either.

That’s because they’re full of shit, the condensation does come back for my Mugen taillights, I’m gonna keep an eye on it everyday to see if actual water builds up.

Condensation does come back in cold weather. I stopped trying to prevent it. Even the manual says it's normal on OEM tails (but I personally never had that issue with them, only mugens.)

Now that it's cold here on the east coast, it condensates almost everyday. I would be OK if it condensates once in a while and go away. The positive thing is that the condensation is on the side so it's harder to notice. I guess that's expected because Depo used to make knock-off lights back in the day.

I dont have issues with condensation, because I wrapped the whole lense body. :)
