this really bothers me, i have water trapped in my left (drivers) tail light.
its always fogged up and looks crappy.

does anyone know how to fix this, and is it easy to, if i had to, to remove the tail light and do it myself?

and im having trouble finding any rx8 aftermarket tail lights, anyone have a good site?

This topic has been discussed Numerous times.

Forget about searching.... Just scroll to the bottom of the page. The first four similar topics are listed there.

If you'd like to search outside of the site - google finishline performance ; they have a list of TSB's for the car - there ARE TWO on the taillights.

Also, you may want to delete this thread. Folks around here will flame you for not searching.

 

or just drill a lil hole somewhere so the condensation can escape

 

don't be stupid. there are new gaskets that will fix your problem. ask me how i know. i have done both of mine.

 

that drilling a hole in them would not really work would it? haha

 

no.

Eddie, did you not see my post? This is a known issue, Mazda will fix this for you. Are you still in warranty?

 

well ebay has good prices on tailights... and you can bake em and put a new gasket.. orrrrrrrr... DRILL EM!!! both of mine were fish tanks until i put 3 tiny holes in em..lol.. water was out and moisture was gone ...if you search the forums im not the only whose done em... IT WORKS!!.. pick your faith..

 

....and you still complain about getting condensation.

 

i am out of warranty already im probably 6k over the 50k.
i didnt know they would of taken care of it for me i was never given that option, im mad. haha

 

im thinking im just going to take mine apart and drain them first.
if the condensation comes back ill buy myself a new gasket.

 

It will come back.

 

The water gets in though the bulb socket orifices. If you drill a hole underneath the bulb socket it should drain before water gets into the taillight. When you pull out the taillight, you should be able to tell where to drill. I noticed this after I had already drilled three holes at the bottom of my taillight. Either way it works. my taillights are clear! Now if only I could fix the front lights condensation problem...

 

do you still have warranty? if so just bring it back to the dealer and have them replaced. got mine replaced cause of the same reason.
