Hey its been a while since I've been here. I decided to change my Series 1 VF Sportwagon tail lights to LED and to check why my reverse lights were playing up.
It seems that the white plastic lamp holders on both sides have perished (the reverse lamps). The driver's side badly enough that the lamp basically fell out when I removed the tail light assembly from the car. To make it worse the driver's side lamp was not sealing due to the plastic breaking away and not holding the seal seated it wasn't noticeable from outside but the base of the lamp was wet when I pulled it out.
This seems to be some sort of manufacturing fault the grey and black holders for the other lamps are fine.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem, I am thinking I might go to a dealer and ask them if Holden will cover this as an 8 year old car should not have a defect like this.
