Well its been almost 2 weeks with the fog lights installed and I am already having condensation in both fog lights after washing the car and sometimes after it rains.
Anyone having this same problem?

Have you bumped into anything on the front bumper.

I have seen lenses that were BARELY tapped (not even considered hit) and broke a seal and caused condensation. If you havent hit them, is there the possibility on returning them or exchanging them???

Are they dealer installed oem fog lights or are they at least oem fog lights?

KILLER

They are not OEM fog lights from the dealer. I got them from TRDSPARKS.
I did contact the company and they asked for pictures of the fog lights with water in them in order to issue a replacement set. To my best of luck they just cleared up but I am going to spray them
with a lot of water to see if they condensate again.
LoL now I know why they are called FOG lights... -__-

i'm on my 3rd oem set from the dealer

gonna be 4th soon, just keeps coming back, they are very poorly sealed

KILLER

Well update. I used all these 3 things to seal them

3M window ribbon sealer


foam sealnt rope


Aluminum a/c tape


I washed the car today and not 1 drop of water inside the housing. I did notice something else though. Since I am using CREE LED bulbs I noticed the rubber gasket that goes around the base of the bulb did not make a tight seal compared to the stock halogen bulbs. I swapped the red rubber gaskets and the LED bulb now fits tighter

this sucks, 4th pair? Every car I have owned with fog lights has always had this water issue. Even with OEM fog lights. It happened on my Mustang, My 2 VW GTI's my Explorer and now the TC.

FML!!!

Are you sure this is a problem. In the user manual it says our headlights condense but that it is normal due to ventilation, It does go away after a while.

KILLER

No this wasn't condensation due to weather . There was water inside the housing and
It wouldn't go away unless I removed the bulbs and blow hot air inside.
I am almost 100% sure the water was getting in through the light bulb seal and
the rest though the vent hole on the back of the fog lamp.
