So its been raining a lot the past couple days and realized that my passenger tail light had some condensation building in it. I searched for a DIY topic on the site but couldn't really find what i was looking for. Can somebody find it in their heart to guide me in the right direction?

 

Did you check to make sure your blinker fluid isn't leaking into your tail light?

 

I just put duct tape over the top part of the seal on mine. Not enough care to fix properly.

But if you have that much care, you could take off the whole thing
Throw it in the oven until the glue/sealant comes undone
Reapply some and seal it up

 

yes i read about this method, duct tapping is not for me lol But does anyone have a good diy or a thread with pics? also what sealant to use, ext.

 

replace the tail light gasket

 

Haha...sorry I must have been pretty drunk lastnight.

ok, thanks guys

 

I had the same problem with my S2000. The left rear tail light would either get foggy or condensation in it,
especially after it rained.

The best way to fix it is to buy a "gasket". It is a foam piece that attaches to the tail light. Probably
the gasket is worn out and not providing a proper seal. This is the best way to get that part or see what I
am talking about ......

1. Go to majestic Honda
2. Scroll down to System Name/Component: Taillight - license plate (2)
3. In the diagram it is either part 4 or 17 depending on left or right tail-light.

You can do it yourself. It is pretty easy.

you know...getting a used tail light works just as well.. there are tons out there and dirt cheap
