JDM side markers condensation
I purchased a set of clear side markers from Nigel about 3 months ago and installed them and all was fine. About a week and so ago I notice condensation in the driver one. How is this possible? I ordered the jdm ones to specifically get away from condensation issues some of the aftermarket ones were having and paid extra for the jdm ones. Nigel got back to me and said toyota japan offers no warranty.
Anyone else have this issue? ![]() ![]()

Tell me about it. I paid $100 for the set and this happens. It rains a lot here in Miami. I'm super upset.

I bought them from Nigel and he told me that toyota japan has no warranty. I just can't believe that a factory part has no sort of warranty on it.

Who gives a damn if Toyota Japan doesn't have a warranty. You didn't buy them from Toyota Japan.
