Water in tail lights???

Tell me about it.. $160 was a rip off.

I wasnt happy whan i saw the price but im happy with the result.

i posted a similar question ages ago on SDU...here's a copy n paste of one of the answers i got:

--------------------

The factory Nissan adhesive is a rubberized caulking, similar to that used in sealing windshields. one small pinhole and you end up with what we call "fishbowls" half a taillight filled with water. Only way to combat this is to take the taillight ousing back out and remove all the old sealnt, and get a tube of ruberized caulking, Silicone household caulking will not work. Try an auto parts store for windshield grade. And yes it is a pain in the but to remove them that stuff is sticky.

I cant see why the good old Roof & Gutter silastic wouldn't work.... I've seen it last for years in the weather .

MrGTST,

If the crap is on the outside then just use Brasso on the lens, trust me it works. If it's on the inside then it's best to pay someone to do it properly, I can get you the phone number of some people in Perth who do it.

See'ya:burnout:

just used some old brasso on the outside of my headlights, polished out a few of those foggy patches... looks shit hot now, headlights look like new

I had the same prob.... When I took it to a panel workshop for spraying my body kit.... he drilled holes at the bottom of the lights for me.... now I have no water at all.. even after leaving car on the grass in winter....
