Default TYC taillight shroud question.

The shroud on my tyc ( the piece that meets with the bumper when you open the hatch) has a crack in it. The hole for the shroud on my stockies dont match. I've searched and searched. Does anyone know if I can get a replacement or have any ideas? Anything will help. Thanks.

I know exactly what you're taking about.

the cheap way is to go to the dealership and just be like "the bumper hangs a little lower on this one side" and once they look at the problem, they'll change it under warranty.

I dont really think that you can change it except for gettin a new pair... sorry

yes its the black part. the large curved black part that runs along the inside seam of the light. If you open your hatch and look down, its the black part that coinsides with the bumper.

nah, screw holes dont match, and the curvature on the stocks are a little tighter. I was thinking of getting a heat gun out and maybe just bending the stock ones up a bit.

The TYC lights are crap. I oringally had a pair, and both of them leaked water within 6-8 months of being installed. I wouldnt bother trying to get another pair or anything, because more than likely theyll do the same. Go with some migicar lights from migicar.com. I got mine way over a year ago, and not a single problem. Plus, its a little more custom than the factory offered TYC.
