I had condensation on the Left after 3 years.

Bought a used light on e-bay, sealed with silocone, and it filled-up with water the first time it rained.

Took the gasket off the e-bay light and doubled on the OEM light with no silocone.

No leaks since.

Thats the whole point of the TSB, the new gasket is thicker than the old one.

you have to load the pics up to each post instead of just linking to them. we do that so in case your host site should ever go away the pics are here to stay

I tried to put the [ img ] tag, but it wouldnt load for some reason

I can upload it on rx8club.com, but I have to resize them down the size, and it will not be as clear as it is now .....
