Good morning, does anyone have any trouble with theri rear lights fogging up behind the clear cover? My girlfriends new mini is doing just this and she is a perfectionist and doesnt like this.
Anyone had any replaced by Mini under warranty?

Thank you.

Used to see a few-the seal at the rear of the unit fails to seat properly or the light has a defect along the seam.
If its in warranty then they should be replaced-this might be different on extended warranty though(cosmetic tends not to be covered-even though its a defect).
Have you had water ingress to the boot(under carpet)if you have then the misting can be caused by this-the fault then is normally the 3rd brake light
