OK, let me get this straight. You came on here, asked a question and were told specifically not to drill holes in your tail lights. Then you were given detailed instructions on how to properly fix your problem, with the invitation to PM any questions and informed of available pics if you wanted them. Last, you drilled holes in your tail lights. :squint: :banghead: :icon_no2:
So when the lights fill up with water again are you going to drill another hole or try to remove the silicon in the current hole? I'm just trying to figure out your thought process on this issue. I did the same thing his dad did. It worked. The small hole drilled will help keep water and condensate out if the silicone seal fails over time. If so, just apply a new layer of silicone seal. No more holes are needed. I did not silicone over the hole. I have taken the car through numerous touchless car washes with no problem or condensate reaccurance. Taillights have stayed dry for over year now. |
I can't take it anymore.
Every other thread lately asks about taillights fogging up. And in every one, someone quickly mentions the solution: Mazda's TSB with newly-designed taillight gaskets. You would think each thread would end there. But noooooooooo… "I'm gonna drill little holes." "I drilled some holes." "How many holes should I drill?" "My Dad drilled holes when I wasn't looking." Jeez, it's like watching the old "Half Wits" skit on SCTV. :banghead: |
i just bought my rx8 and im having the same problem but i knew that was a comone problem with rx8s before i got it anyway, i dont know about the gasket thing but i think i know what the problem is with them........
i just pulled it off today to get all the water out and i relised that the little LED lights on the sides have a problem with the wiering as its coming out of the back, its not actually even sealed i meen thers just like a bit of material on it. water can easaly get thrue it so im goin to take the cloth of and replace it with cilicon if that dosent work ill trye the gasket thing. but i think that should do it. but dose anyone know how to pull the actual light apart because it i dont get all the water out it will never clear up and i dont want water marks on the inside ?? |
