taillights (yes i searched, still have q)
Ok I searched on ways to fix this, tried baking the light and then prying it, didnt work so well. I bought one off ebay and added more sealant around the whole thing. still fogging. now my thought is to take it to the dealer, wondering if anyone knows how long a warranty would be in effect with something like that?

You might want to try some different spellings...

There is a new gasket design out that will properly seal the tail lights. Did it myself as I was out of warranty... gasket was something like $45 for a piece of foam from Mazda, but haven't had any issues since then (about a year ago).

If you are under 50k miles, you should still be covered. If you arn't, buy the gasket and do it the correct way. Easy to do, just takes a few hours to let the inside of the housing dry out.
