No worries, glad you found a set of the authentic JDM side markers

You are lucky; I've heard quite a few people having condensation/moisture issues with their Helix side markers.

Like stated in the sellers thread helix is aware of the issue and working on it.
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56694

Here's another thread about it.

Easiest solution is to reseal them with rtv black.
This is just like or tail lights some people go condensation but most didn't. It's a new platform shit happens. Sorry for you experience I hope your oem ones work out.
