Winjet Inc Tacoma Tail Lights Comments, Concerns, Questions

cool. you should be good. which version did you pick?

 

Same...smoked tail light

 

What are you talking about "Old Man", I've been subscribed Bro! LOL Love your channel! I especially dig how the kids get involved! That's the best. Yea, I must have missed the code when I was watching on my phone. It is so tempting man! I want these so bad! I wonder if I would land in the doghouse if I bought these and the lift kit? Hmmmm..... LOL
But seriously, I really do enjoy your vids, I just need to make more time to watch them all the time.

Thanks again, and definitely great job on the Tube! Oh, that was amazing of Tacomabeast to represent all the way out there in Cali! I have some of their swag.

 

Thanks man!

code is in the description of the video not in it.. but hint.. it has our names

I won't mention anything if you get both lift and lights.

 

10-4, didn't want to post it here for obvious reason (hint, more views = more subscribers damnit).

Ok, I'll just blame you then!

 

Does anyone have pics of the taillights on a cement taco?

I haven't been able to find one.

 

Mines coming in on Monday. Thanks @Rob Daman

 

You may be the first!

Awesome! glad you were able to get on the deal.

 

Ok so here's a follow up to my post on feedback I made a couple pages back. They still look great and I love how bright they are. I am going to contact the company I got these from though on Monday to see what they can do since mine started leaking water into one of them during my carwash today. Here are a couple of pictures. You can see the drops on the inside lateral part of the housing and also condensation on the inside by the backup light. Definitely one of the reasons I have avoided aftermarket lights in the past.

 

Damn dude, that sucks.

 

One of the reasons I like to by different products is to test them out and report back. I've only had these on my truck for about a month now.

 

Don’t need to spend more money but...20% man it’s like you’re paying me to get them

 

Just a follow up on my current situation after a few weeks post water leaking into one of the taillights after washing my truck. The vender I bought the lights through is still working on trying to get ahold of Winjet to warranty out my leaking tail lights. Apparently winjet is not the best at responding to claims and therefore no response yet. In the meantime, I removed my leaking tail light to preserve my LED reverse bulb and put back on my stock taillights. The water inside the housing is now eating at the inner paint. I made attempts to drain the water from the housing and got a good deal out. Still love the look of this brand of light but for the price of taillights like this it's a bummer to have paper weights for the time being.

 

Excellent post, thanks for the follow up. It's very sad that it's even needed.

 

I emailed them about making matching headlights, no response...

 

This makes me not want to purchase them. I love the look of the tail lights but the deal breaker is customer service. If a company can’t be held to the expectation that it’ll stand behind its product and asssist their customers in any way they can than it’s a hard pass.

Thanks for the post!

 

I hope that doesn't turn out to be my experience. I am having the same issue as of today, rained hard last night for the first time in a long time and the drivers side light has water in it. I reached out to the vendor I purchased them from and I hope they make it right. No problem with the passenger side lights at all as of yet. They have been on the truck a little over a month and a half.

 

Received mine from iJDMTOY today and nothing but issues. I did everything correctly, white to black connector. Blew both the 10A and 7.5A fuses twice, getting the brake override warning light when I started the truck and unable to shift into drive. It's a shame because the lights look really slick. I reached out to iJDM hoping for a refund. Thankfully the documentation mentioned this would happen so I knew what the heck was going on. I'm debating if it's worth getting extra fuses and trying to flip the connectors to see if that works.

 

So just an update on my situation... I have contacted the company I purchased the lights from, and they are trying their best to be helpful. It's been 3 days since the RMA was requested with pictures and a video showing all the water and no response as of yet. In addition, I dried all the moisture out of the light (It was pooled inside the light) on saturday, and it's been raining like mad here, and yep.. bottom of the light is filling with water again, super disappointing. I think the worst part about this whole issue is, when Winjet issues an RMA, I must send the lights back for credit, and then once the credit is issued, the company I bought them from will send me new lights. Since I bought these to replaced a broken light, I don't have a set to swap in while these are out for credit! What am I supposed to do? Drive around with no tail lights? (obviously not an option). Don't suppose anyone around here has a passenger side tail light they'd want to part with so I can put the OEM set back on the truck in the meanwhile do they?

I am disgusted with the whole situation.

 

Hey my friend!! I also have the WinJet Tailights and i have leakage in my passenger side reverse light luckily it seems to be isolated to just that one spot. Unfortunately, until I fix it, it burnt out my reverse light so i don't want to put in a new one yet. I have reverse light pods in the bumper so not a big issue.

I did keep my factory lights and I have them in a box in my attic. I am located in Houston Texas. I wouldn't mind loaning them to you, but I definitely would want them back unless you're interested in purchasing the set. Maybe we can work something out. A refundable deposit or something as collateral lol
