| Folks
My logans left tail lamp cracked may be due to unknown hit.
Tail lamp was not available for replacement from the dealer.
I bought one from out side which is original and fitted ok. But later I found durng rain or car wash water gets into the lamp and spoils the reflectors.
I showed the problem at another logan delaer.He says the lamp has to be changed.
I dont understand what he means by "change" because I have already changed the lamp as indicated above.
Can some one help me what can be done about it ?

| @ Ratna, The leakages occuring in tail lamps is difficult to pinpoint with accuracy, as even small sealant gaps can cause water to seep in due to the capillary action. Hence, the other dealer is recommending a change of the lamp unit (casing).
Where exactly did you buy the Tail lamp from "Outside"? Is it a genuine Mahindra branded (MR Branded) part?
If it is not, the chances of leakage cannot be ruled out. | |

The tail lamp was original OE but bought from an automobile shop specialising on head lights tail lamps etc. of plastic items. Whole thing bought for 2k without bulb holder.
