Kerry, I might have got some from the same batch... I got the exact tailights/brand, only i got mine from mustang tuning...

while I liked the look, I dumped them... they seemed poorly made, leaked, and on the drivers side, the bulb was pressing against the lens causing discoloration and melting....

i do have those same tallights and mine dont leak or have any condensation problems. It seems like a lot of the aftermarket taillights just kinda suck. ive seen a lot of cars with them and a lot have condensation problems and they discolor. before the taillights i have now i went through two pairs of lights from two different companies and they both collected pools of water inside them. had to ditch em.

Ive had no problem nor seen any problems with aftermarket headlights for the mustang. they seem to be very well built and i have a set of clear ones with clear corners myself.

Ebay Stuff


I got dual angel eye projectors off ebay and i love them. The looked pretty sick (almost too bling) but no leaks or problems. They where $150 shipped and everything so if you can find a good deal, grab it. BTW, I will post pics of my stang soon.

I got the same tails just with the silver outline on em instead of the black. I have had no problems with them. There is some condensation if it's really muggy and foggy out though. Dries up, and it's all good then.

mine have finially stopped leaking after drilling venting holes and putting tubes in them to drain. i put silicon sealer around the entire thing where the pieces of plastic meets and i used undercoating on the back of both lights to seal them too. none of that worked except the vent tubes.
