Spyder v2 tail lights
 
Some of you may know that the V2 tails from Spyder have had a few glitches in some of the "first batch" of tails. My first set had crappy fitment on the drivers side and water issues on the passenger side. I received my warranty replacement set of v2 spyders yesterday. My replacement set already has water in it from today's rain shower in the passenger side lamp. :iono: drivers side fit fine though.

Has anyone else identified the issue? I don't want to keep exchanging leaky tails because it's a hassle to swap etc.. And I have to hold on to my oems until it's resolved. :bonk: Any suggestions? Gaskets look way better than stock and water issue has only been on the passenger lamp on both.

Yeah I gave up on replacements and went with toms. Way better quality and fit!

How many replacements have you had already? V2s?

Use the search function - the fix has been posted on this site for quite some time. It involves gasket sealer on the gaskets and a snowman snot dam.

These tail lights came out like 2 weeks ago. I don't think my gaskets are the problem. I've checked them thoroughly on both sets.
