by the way, don't know if anyone has noted this, but the latest issue of Automobile Mag (April?), they noted that their long-term test BRZ was brought in for the same tail light condensation. Just a quick note that it was replaced by the dealer. But I imagine such publicity will only drive Subaru and Toyota to work even more to fix this highly visible issue...

I thought I dodged the bullet on this one, but I just found out there was a small on condensation in both my taillights.
Do they let you keep the original ones or does the dealer keep those? |

Just *how* that much water got into it during the biggest drought in recorded history is a mystery! |

The new TSB above just lists new 15mm surface area nuts vs the existing 12mm surface area nuts to install the lights. That's the only difference I see from the last one.

Per the new TSB 12-145-13 dated 2/15/13 the part #'s are still 020 and 030. The new 15mm flange nut part # is 902370040 each. The TSB goes into new details of "flattening" any distorted sheet metal due to the old style nuts. |
