Default OEM Taillight Condensation/Dim Lighting

Hi guys,

I have condensation on the DRL driver side taillight and it still works but it’s more dim than the passenger side. I took off the plastic tabs and tried to get in there to see if the bulbs were okay and couldn’t tell to be honest. I plan on just taking it to the dealer and having them look at it. My question is, do you guys know how much an OEM rear DRL light would cost to replace?(worst case scenario) I should also probably mention that the taillights that are NOT attached to the trunk work just fine. It’s just the DRL on the driver side trunk. Thanks!

I don't think the correct term is "DRL taillight" because DRL = daytime running light which is that Nike check mark in the front.

No point in taking it to a dealership because they're going to absolutely finesse you. Buy a used taillight off eBay or junkyard and re-install. Saved you hundreds of dollars.
