@TOTO_86 +1 great video...have to see them in action to appreciate them
If it's condensation you seek, you'll definitely find it here.

Is condensation specific to the brand of OEM lights, or ALL lights have this problem?

I got a bit of condensation too when I first put mine in. Turns out that the gasket shifted while I was putting them on and left a gap in one corner that moisture could get in.

Took the tails back off, repositioned the gasket, and put them back on making sure the gasket was in the correct spot. Haven't seen condensation since, but just to be sure I am going to get some 3m adhesive and seal the gasket to the ridge on the back of the tail lights here soon.

All can have this problem. Seems to depend on the install and the stars and the position of the moon. :-) there's a diy on making upgraded gaskets. Can't say if they actually work better

I wanted Buddy's Club tails until TOMS came out with their clear tails. (Wasn't a fan of the red TOMS)
TOMS style matches the BRZ's headlights so well....I was sold on them as soon as they released.

If I had an FR-S then I would've went with Buddy's Club.

I really like the look of the Buddy Club tails. But my standards for a "clean" build are that the car has to look like something youd buy from the dealer. And although they look badass, they dont look like something Toyobaru would have put on their car. I think im leaning towards TOMS.
