Its been pouring lately and I got water in one of my altezza lights. I took it off and drained it, but there are still water drops in it. Will these eventually go away or do I need another taillight.

P.S. I know I should have sealed them. I sealed the other one

Thanks

Welcome to the club.

I told everyone about this about 4 months ago. I ended up getting another set, only to have them do the same thing.

Hence...the reason I don't have euros anymore.

You'll never get em perfect again. If you seal em, the water spots will remain along with any dirt that came in with the water. Condensation will also show up under extreme conditions.

I dont have water in my lights but I do have a foggy substance in the corners. I was told that APC has cheap glue that they use and its fogs up once the sun starts to warm up the lights. This happend the next day after I installed the lights on my car. Overall I think the lights are crap and not worth the time or money.

that's weird.. I've had my apc's since day 1, been through craploads of storms, and no fog, no water inside mine... *knock on wood*

did you guys trim yours on the back so they fit better or something?

Mine fogged up too i even used weatherstripping to seal them up but it didnt prevent it. I think if i get another pair i would use silicone and seal anything and everything possible so they wouldn't leak.
