Condensation In Rear Lights

[Keep it stiff]

I have some condensation in both rear light clusters of my 6 month old VXR8. Is this a common problem? Also I have noticed once or twice that the rear indicators have not worked on cold/wet mornings, although later they work fine. Related maybe?

Common, yes. Unrelated to indicator problem usually.

Take it to the dealers, they will fix it under warranty.
One of my side repeaters had this problem, sorted no problem.

Yes its common, just pop it back to Vauxhall and let them sort it out. My Ro's rear lights get condensation in them every now and then but later in the day it goes.
So im not going to waste a trip to Vauxhall for just that.
But i know the R8's have a indicator problem aswell so id get that part sorted when you can.

I've had this once, I mentioned it to Motor Bodies Luton who said that Vauxhall would not consider that

i had the same problem in my vxr8 used wifes hair dryer took out the bulbs stuck in the dryer worked a treat have not had any condensation since

As a guess (educated), if Vauxhall will not help and here is no clear water seepage then a pack of desicant left inside (and changed after a while if necessary) would help.
