Not even two weeks into the new headlights and bad news. The passenger light had condensation in it this morning.

This light is worse than my original one. Have not seen anything in the driver side light yet.

Stopped by the dealer this morning. They took several pictures and sent me on my way. 18 miles to work on back roads and it was dry by the time I got to work.

I never had my headlights replaced, I just bought the car used about a month ago. I am not sure that they will replace it under warranty though because the previous owner had HID fogs installed on it.

The dealer finally got back with me about two weeks ago informing me my passenger light was in. They replaced it the following day.....and I had them put my high flow cats in from FI. I had already put the cat-back on from FI. They loved the sound of the exhaust, enough that they wanted to maybe have a display to sell and install them.

Back to the headlights........yes all three of the ones I had with condensation were stock and untouched. Hopefully I am done swapping headlight now.

Mine are stock now but I think the previous owner had hid fogs on it at one point and when he put it back to stock didn't reseal it properly.
