Ok, time to dig up this ancient post. How's everybody's LEDs holding up? Mine is starting to blink erratically on the right most 5 LEDs. Annoying as hell. Don't know if it has anything to do with the sealing adhesive copland mentioned above. During initial installation, I made sure the original adhesive doesn't get damages so I could reuse it. This might not be good enough? Upon closer inspection, I can see the inside plastic casing is all fogged up! I just sent spoiler.com an email asking them if this is covered under warranty. Let's see what they say.

how long urs been??
i had mine since the fall and i dunno if it does the same. i'm usually alone and i cannot make the brake light light up by myself. But i will check and give you an update on it. Last time i checked(dec) it was fine.

I noticed that the leds weren't perfectly lined up anymore on the left side. I'll have to check to see if they light up correctly and get back to you.

Next time when you go grocery shopping.....before you take them out of your car, use the gallon of milk, cartons of OJ or your two liter soda bottles by propping then up against your brake pedal.
Easy way to test the brake lights.

Well, I just got a reply from spoilers.com. The customer rep. was very friendly and didn't question me at all. He simply told me to send the defective LEDs back for a free replacement. I had mine since July. When I get my replacement, I'll make sure I seal the baby in that opening as tightly as possible this time around. To those that simply just slap the new LEDs on without replacing the PSA, I suggest you check yours for fogging too. I believe the excessive moisture is the main culprit here. You'll be surprised how well a piece of poron pad insulates.

Well I just tested my lights and they all work fine. I did notice that if u look at them from underneath the row of led's isn't straight. I don't know if it was like that before but it doesn't seem to affecting light output in anyway.
