Well as predicted my ebay sidemarkers are full of condensation after their first exposure to rain.

I ordered the JHPUSA sidemarkers cause i figure they will be higher quality than these **** ebay ones (and they better be for the price i paid!!).

Anyway anyone have experience with the JHP sidemarkers? Will they remain un-condensated or do i need to do something special before i install them?

They are supposedly and OE honda part so im hoping they will be better quality!

 

You cant compete with OE sidmarkers...The only way these will condensate is if they are cracked or the seal is broken somehow. They are expensive..but worth the money imo.

 

I $2.00 bead of silicone would have fixed your condensation problem.

Yah...not to mention all the silicone mess that would probably end up all over the sidemarker

 

You shouldn't even be allowed to drive a car if you can't lay a bead of silicone.

Ehh yeah that **** is messy... Whatever i would rather just get the good stuff and not worry about it.

Have you seen the slim ouldings on JHP? Are those different from the OEM mouldings on my ex?

Thats what i assumed but wasnt sure couldnt really tell from the pic...

 

using silicone properly is like learning to take a leak with out getting any on your pants leg. It takes patience but it can and has been done.

 

i have oem eg6 markers and no problems with condensation. i bought em used through some airman that was stationed there. good deal. i've had em for over a year, they've endured salt, snow, and rain. I have yet to have problems with them.

 

how the hell you gonna get silicone all over the sidemarker!!!. Get the clear silicone it will seal it up, and if you like this guy you'll hardly even notice the mess.
