what's up? I'm about to get some TYC's pretty soon (on monday actually) and was just wondering if people who have them sealed them with silicone to prevent leaks. I heard that they dont leak and are properly sealed, but do people seal them anyways? I didnt seal my angel eyes, and they always fogged

Has anyone had their TYC headlamps fog up?

i personally didnt do it, i might do it when i re paint my car! Very rarely, and i mean very rarely my lights fog up! so its not a huge issue, and when it does fog up, it goes away after like an hour!

I've had mine on my car since last July and I've had no fogging. All I did was take them out of the box and put them in - no sealing. You shouldn't need to do anything to them.

it is a good idea to seal any aftermarket lights

One of mine starting leaking about 2 months after install. After dealing with TYC for sometime they sent me new ones, which I sealed and have no issue since. Over a year now. I would recommend spending the extra $10 and seal em, can't hurt.

Alright, I was going to seal them anyways, but I wasn't sure if people were having problems with them leaking or not.

my same lights fogged up, I redid them, and made my own angel eyes, which I am not performing on other people's, if you are interested, email me: zazza_ceo@tunernetwork.com, I made a post with pics in the "For Sale" forum, under TYC Project Angel Eyes or something like that,lol.

it all depend if you get one tha fogs up, my did so i seal it up with black electric tape, and also its black housing so it doesnt show up its better than the sealant.

The TYCs are not sealed. They are just snapped together. It is quite possible their are parts on the headlamps where the lens and base are not flush. Just put a bead of silicone around them. It will take you 10 min to do the two headlamps, and you won't ever have to worry about it.

Just FYI, I bought mine used and the person said it never fogged. It appeared clean and spotless, but on a couple of cold nights in CA caused my headlights to fog heavily. Save your self some time, and just seal them.

My driver side projector fogs up like crazy while the passenger side has not ever fogged up. It's really luck of the draw. I would say seal them and not ever worry about it.

They do have a bead of silicone already in them. And then they are snapped together. I redid them completly and did angel eyes, and then resealed. Haven't had a problem since.
