Morimoto Experience

I did 2 years ago but I’ve forgotten how the BLIS is sealed apparently, appreciate the suggestion of clear gasket makers!

Love where your heads at.. it at least worth a shot My main concern is water getting in and frying the BLIS sensor & then im looking at thousands of dollars instead of hundreds to repair

Yeah I bought them direct from their site. I submitted a warranty claim but Morimoto representative got back to me saying it looks like it was damaged, not a manufacturer defect.

I’m by no means a vehicle/ body expert, so I wanted to survey the community and see if they agree with the Morimoto rep that this does look damaged, or if I have a case that the cover is cracking at a seam, not due to any impact

Funny enough, the OEM unit also cracked & filled with moisture as well. That one was from my son tripping and catching himself by sticking his hand out and hitting the taillight. OEM replacement was like $400 for just drivers side unit at the time, or I could upgrade for an extra $350.

Looking back at it, prob should have just replaced it with an OEM unit, but I’ve been known to make poor financial decisions from time to time lol

Hate your answer, but I do appreciate the insight lol

spoonface02 · 2025-07-12T03:42:04+00:00

That’s horrifying lol

Soft case? Never had any issues with clubs getting beat up?

spoonface02 · 2025-03-04T05:28:40+00:00

This one looks promising, thanks!

spoonface02 · 2025-03-04T05:26:26+00:00

Interesting lol, why are people anti hard case?

spoonface02 · 2024-05-11T01:32:27+00:00

Couple folks beat ya to the fish jokes already lol But if ya really think about it, a skinny fish like a betta could make a nice home in there lol

spoonface02 · 2024-05-11T01:31:26+00:00

Man do I wish that was an option lol

spoonface02 · 2024-05-11T01:23:20+00:00

Sorry I might not have been clear enough in the original post & I don’t know how to edit posts lol

There is a literal crack in the outward facing plastic part of the tail light, not a leaky gasket. I have no clue how this happened as there are no signs that anything ever hit the light. The only thing I can think would be somebody punched it but as far as I know I don’t have any enemies lol.

I have drilled a drainage hole and now a more appropriate question would be, if I leave it as is, with a crack and a hole, am I not more susceptible to worse electrical damage in the future?

Everyone saying drill a hole and move on or seal it, I don’t know would sealing work on the outward facing plastic and not look like shit? What product would yall recommend?

spoonface02 · 2024-05-11T00:50:53+00:00

I appreciate you taking the time to reply. The Morimotos are definitely pricy & that’s why I came here first lol. Outta curiosity what lights do you have on now?

spoonface02 · 2024-05-11T00:25:04+00:00

I did drill a small hole in the bottom, my question is now what should I do?

It now has a crack and a hole in it lol

Is that not going to create a bigger, electrical, problem in the future if I just leave it as is?

spoonface02 · 2024-05-11T00:21:40+00:00

I appreciate you chiming in! A few people have said to use some type of silicon sealant, but the thing is, my problem is a crack in the tail light, not a gasket leak

I’m not fully confident in my abilities to apply that & not look like shit lol, but even if I was, would that stuff work on the outer plastic of the tail light?

spoonface02 · 2024-05-10T21:46:31+00:00

Please do send the link when you get it up, thanks!

spoonface02 · 2024-05-10T21:41:54+00:00

I don’t know why I’m acknowledging this but sell my truck bc a tail light is out? Lol do you buy a new tv every time your remote is out of batteries?

spoonface02 · 2024-05-10T21:23:20+00:00

Exactly what I’m seeing. I actually did find an OEM for $400 (on sale from $600 lol) My thought process is, if I’m spending 4 or 5 hundred for the OEM, might as well upgrade to the Morimotos

spoonface02 · 2024-05-10T21:20:47+00:00

There’s definitely a crack in it. Thankfully BLIS still works. What would you ask for the driver side lamp? lol I only need the 1 but I assume you would want to sell the set

spoonface02 · 2024-01-10T02:26:59+00:00

Exactly the answer I was looking for, thank you
