Personally no, I have seen these OEMassive tails talked about on here by a few others. I think the fitment was a bit iffy iirc.

I have these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2008-2013-G...8AAOSwq3he4ukO

but I see that the same vender also sales the one's like you posted: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2008-2013-G...kAAOSwnRxeWs0N

I can only speak for the quality of the one's that I bought, they are of very good quality in my opinion and came packaged very well.

if your concern is moisture then don’t buy aftermarket tail lights. It’s hit or miss with them. I have aftermarket tails and they do get condensation.

Because I had a friend that bought aftermarkets and he said had no issues so im trying to find out if this particular seller had sold any defective ones.
Did you purchase them or are you just putting in your two cents?

I purchased a pair so I have experience. Don’t get me wrong I really like them but deal with the condensation.

condensation issues can be remedied by adding small silica gel packets inside the back of the housing I would assume. I did the same for my audi years back and never had condensation issues ever since. Just make sure you purchase the ones that can handle high heat (more for a peace of mind).

Wiser words have never been written.

Rule of thumb is to expect them to develop some condensation. What you can you on your end is to add a bead of clear rtv for further insurance along with making sure that your gaskets are intact and for last measures a desiccant pack.
