lots of water^^ Winter is coming. It will be the 5th winter and I am really watching out for this problem. I mean any leak is disturbing. First it will be wet and damp in the car. Let pass a few weeks and it will smell frowsty over time. Hopefully the lowrr rear plastic window is still sticking strong. lol
Good video and and a good solution! cheers
Excellent video, really helped with my Crz rear light with the samn issue.
Thank you mate. Glad I could help!
Thanks for showing this, Had the same issue with my fn. Keep on the good work mate 👌👌

Thanks for the help mate i have condensation in my rear light deffo gonna do this ✌
No worries mate glad I could help! 😁
Old vid but great work Lew. Am about to take all my rear lights off to rid of the green mould. Wish me luck 🤣
Thank you for that mate. Best of luck!
Brill video dude. Good information and we'll put together. 😀
Thank you so much buddy 😁
Good Vid......my 2011 FN1 has started to fog slightly inside the lenses on damp days plus as you stated that green mossy stuff has been around the lights since I’ve bought it....I’ve tried to clean them with various brushes while on the car but I’m thinking of doing the same 👍🏻
Unfortunately it's all common faults with this car. Glad you liked the video. 👍🏻
Good job lew 🙏
Thanks mate 👍🏻
why didn't u pop the boot trim off?
bet there's a small crack ontop letting water in
Cool, and helpful.
Thank you
Class vid bro
Cheers bro 👍🏻
methylated spirit for cleaning rubber/plastic seals - wipe it off several times, then apply some silicone lubricant (methylene dries rubber a lot so always apply lubricant after cleaning). works wonders, you will not see any mould for several years
Thanks for the pointers
Nice work young man
Thank you mate ☺
Actually very easy to take off the trim.
I am an amateur but got it off in a couple of minutes. After that it's child's play
Nice slippers fnlew
Bargain Buys £5 😉
This happened on my Ford Mondeo and I drilled a small hole underneath the light to allow water to drain if it gets in, which only happens when the jet wash hits the light. Seems to be a problem with the sealing of the lamp.
Yeah it's definitly the sealant that let's them down.
cho Lew, got the same problem ova here! But this is only happening when cold weather arises and the sun 's burning on it.
Yes it's unfortunately the worst time for it.
that sounds like you have water sitting between the bottom of the light and the body work? maybe look at sealing the light unit into the body work?
love ya vids mate gotta FNPoo mysekf
Cheers mate good stuff! 👍🏻
wait until the big center section starts gathering water that is fun to take off. Next time just leave bulb inside while you unscrew the nuts, and the electrical wires have clips.
God I can imagine. Yes I noticed that. Two ways to do the job I suppose 👍🏻
Just a quick question have you done the short shifter mod? It's worth doing 👍
Tony Prince I know, your questions is not pointing to me but I have done this mod and I like it. Its worth it. And to file out the little plastic spot is not that time consuming.
@@brettershoalar9001 totally agree it's the cheapest mod I have done to my CTR and the best in my opinion...
Tony Prince Yes. Plus that, driver and passenger window guards, from the brand Heko. Maybe dark rear windows inserts by Solarplexius or similar. Other than that, the extra Type-R logo on the front. A neo-chrome shift knob.
I have spend (well worth) some money on a new double DIN radio unit. My 2008 model unit trashed itself-CDs no more readable. Wish I had the heated seats for the winter month but maybe I am better without it anyway, I mean its a Type-R lol
I've heard good things about this mod. I'd just rather try and get my gear selection a bit more reliable before I start messing with that. (which I have coming to the channel very soon 😉)
@@FNLEW i like your car mate ive watched you do it from scratch to look how it does now for a cheap mod ive heard lots of good things too im installing mine tomorrow deffo worth a shot when your ready 👍
My lights dont fog up thank god ;)
Trust me it still does get condensation bro there is a vent on the rear under the gasket ..I use black tiger seal otherwise the silicone looks horrible fella 😄🤗
I'll just have to play it by ear then buddy. Up to now it's still clear as day. Yeah I'd use a different sealant if I did it again 😂.
I'm in the process of doing a led conversion 😉😄
@@kirklishman8997 ooooo does it make the bulbs a clearer colour?
@@FNLEW bulbs!! I'm ripping it apart fella doing a led panel conversion 😉😄👍 no bulbs..
@@kirklishman8997 a lot of work then 😂. Good luck with it! 👍🏻
Its called an offset ring spanner
Thanks mate 👍🏻
2nd and 3rd comments lol
I know 😂
Why didn't you remove the large plastic trim piece? You turned a 10 minute job into an ordeal! Lol 😜
Which large plastic trim piece? The one on the back of the light? Or the back of the boot lid?
@@FNLEW yes the big bit at the bottom of the tailgate. 2 screws in the pull down handles and a bunch of clips.
@@marcogarofalo6343 fair enough. I'll know for next time.
And there will be a next time! Also fyi You can use silicone spray its a lubricant for rubbers its great on door seals and things like the light seal too.
