Rear Light Clusters
Rear Light Clusters
I have Lexus rear light clusters. Offside constantly has condensation within the "sealed" part. Any suggestions on how to prevent this?

Re: Rear Light Clusters
I had the same problem in my aftermarket altezza (lexus) rear lights. My solution was a combination of taking the lights apart, to paint the inside's black, but when i put the lens back on, I added extra silicon all around, and then drilled small holes on the bottom of each cluster. Hope that helps / gives you an idea ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Re: Rear Light Clusters
Drill more ventilation holes - its like opening the windows when the windshield fogs up. More holes will also allow water to drain out easily.

Re: Rear Light Clusters
this could be a dumb question, why don't the headlights get full of condensation? Are there ventilation holes?
just trying to learn

Re: Rear Light Clusters
Yep there are two (maybe more) big holes on the back of each headlight - there is a rubber tube with a bend on each hole to prevent water from entering easily while allowing water to drain out.
