Mirror blinker water condensation
We had our first rainy weekend. I noticed that clear 2005 side blinkers on the outside mirrors have water condensation inside -- in both left and right mirrors. I did not notice it at first.
Anyone else with this problem? Anyone know how to take off the clear reflector to clean out the condensation? Seems like a bad design..

I had exactly the same condensation problem as yours in the mirror. Water gets in easy but can't escape as easily. The condensation would stay for two weeks after one day of rain. I took the car to the dealer, the whole mirror assembly was replaced under warranty. I haven't seen the same problem ever since.

they replaced the entire mirror asssembly (frame, mirror, housing, and indicator) for condensation in the indicator?
