Moist /water in my headlight
Man this suck!!! I just got my tC for not even a month yet and what did I see in my headlight this morning? Moist/water in my right side headlight! I checked for cracks or any kind of hint where water could get in and nada/nothing. It has been raining everyday for almost two weeks in Houston now. It's also very humid down here too. So, I'm pretty sure that both of that combine had something to do with this.
Here's my question to you fellas... Is there a way to get rid of this or should I just take it back to the dealer and have them fix it. If I do take it back, should I take out all of my Luminics low beam lights and my accent LED lights so they won't blame it on that? Or better yet, try to void my warranty because of the bulbs and LEDs. What you fellas think?

My fault for not explaining clearly. The LED was just put in about 30 minutes ago. I spotted this problem yesterday morning not this morning. I took the picture around 6:30 PM and put the LED around 7:30 PM.

Good question teksno. It's one of those things that your just receive your new stuff that you just order so you want to install it. Plus, it look bad @ss at night.
Anyway, I guess the answer is take everything back out and bring it to the dealership huh? No other simple way to resolve this? As in do it your self simple way?

I had the same problem when I lived in southern California. I just moved to Las Vegas and as my wife followed me while I drove the U-Haul I watched the water evaporate over 2 or 3 hours. Its 116 degrees right now with 10% humidity and my lights are as dry as can be.

do tC lights have a history of seals cracking or anything? even a minor crack can lead to condensation. if scion won't do anything about it, I guess u could drill a hole in the bottom of the housing, to let the trapped air/moisture out. that's what we've done on a couple of my buddies' mustangs. or just get new OEM housings..

Ok question then.... I have the aftermarket halo and i got water in my driver side going through a car wash... week after i installed them.... What the hell are the 4 holes in the back of the headlight housing then? i believe only 2 on the stock housing... Do i cap those? Would that stop condisation or water in my housing?
