Anybody else's TYC headlights leak horribly?

[97Bowtie1106]

My TYCs are maybe 3 months old and they leak really bad. I was driving in the rain last night and so much moisture got in that I blew a bulb. All Ive heard is that TYC is the best aftermarket headlight. Honestly, my eBay headlights have held up better. Anybody else have this problem or did I just get the shaft? Id really like to just seal these up but Im not sure if it's worth it.

I have TYCs as well and they don't leak too bad, but whenever it rains or I wash the truck they do fog up.

and people laugh at me for keeping OEM lights.

Did you try siliconing them up?

 

[97Bowtie1106]

not yet but I will...new OEM headlights and parking lights are probably about to be installed if I cant get these.

I forgot I had a set of near perfect oem headlights...just not sure if Id like it with the clear parking lense

Disregard my yellowing parking light.

my first set did within a week and ruined the chrome in the housing so had to send em back for a new set. now its been like a year on this set and no problems. still wouldnt call them best fitting i have mine on stock headlight brackets so they fit better than before

Yeah anymore when I buy a set of clear headlight's I use clear silicone on them right out of the box.

Yeah I did that then realized I got too much around the outside end of the light and had to trim it back....those w/t's have a very close tolerance around that end clip section. I still don't think I got it ALL out of there, the pass side one fits pretty snug. The DEPO ones fit my 98 like stock headlights, I even got out the gap blocks to check and they're perfect.

I bought a set of IPCW headlights and have had no problem with the lens, but I can't say the same about the part that bolts to the truck. The adjuster is broken and it makes the lens very loose. Anyway, these came with pre-drilled holes in the bottom to let moisture out so they don't yellow up. I don't know if it will help since yours leaks, but I drilled holes in my S10 light housings too and that kept the moisture out.
