    Have had the pro for less than 5 hours. Already have moisture in foglamps..... I'm gonna say that's not normal and time for a trip to the dealer?

    Thanks.

    You talking about those Rigid lights? Those are distributed to Toyota, not produced by them.

    Regardless, it'll go through Toyota.

    Sounds like a lemon law candidate.













    J/K I'm letting this forum make me cynical. Yeah, I'd think they should be sealed.

    Just pointing that out because chances are the tards at the dealer won't know the specs of it and their tendencies.

    Walked in. Dealer said that's not right and will replace them. Should take a few days to get replacement in.

    You just need to make a way for the moisture to escape, take a small drill bit and add a small hole to the top corner of the lens.

    You want me to drill into my foglights? I'll have them check my blinker fluid when they replace them, and they better use the PRO fluid this time! ;)

    That's water man! Not steam. He needs to drill a 1/4" hole in the top of both corners.

    If he turns on the lights on for 10 minutes he will heat the water up and turn it into steam. But I guess a 1/4" hole will work too if you want the quick instant fix.
