Default Depot Headlights fogging

As you all know I didnt get my car till like March 14th, and since then I installed the Depot's in it. Just noticed this last week that one of them is fogging all up and have dew in it. Surely these have a warranty. I am gonna check my box and hope I have the proof of it. I may have to go around with a black eye, one chrome and one black! I guess I can always say "you should see the other car" Anyone else had any trouble with them?

I don't think the aftermarket lenses are the same quality. My 10 year old stockers look better than my blacked out ones.

iirc they have a 90 day warranty. they treated me pretty good when i had trouble with shipping so i am sure they will help you out.

i havent had any trouble with fogging yet tho.

good luck

I cant find anything on the warranty, but I figured it was 90 days. Now I am not even quite 3 weeks over considering I paid for them on the 1st of April. So count shipping time and the week they fogged. Just out of time. I did email the seller, but no repsonse as of yet. Probably screwed again by the big guy. In any case if I am stuck, Is there an easy fix.

That sucks. Not sure of the warranty, but I ran mine all winter and have never had an issue with mine. Did you make sure that the bulbs are seated correctly? If they are, then I would get some black silicone and go to town on that bad boy.
