Valenti Tail Light Problem

I purchased some new Valenti Sequential Tail lights(Black Edition) and installed them. In one night the outer "boomerang" light has a dead spot in the middle of it. Is this a manufacturers error? Would this be covered under warranty? Attached is an image of the tail light.

Contact whoever you bought it from and ask. If its a legit vendor, they should have some form of warranty in place.

Can't see an attached pic, btw.

Yeah, they are very reputable on here and nice people! Shoot them an email (or better yet call) explaining what the issue is.

What, contact the vendor? That is a startling concept. Gotta ask 100 people first.
