well now I have the drivers side fog. so i removed the tail light and noticed that the reverse light socket has a huge hole in it and i think thats where the water is coming in. i pressured washed it and thats why i got water in it. so now i am waiting for the sun to come out for it to dry and then i'll buy some sealant and put it around the hole. or maybe i'll see what happens when it rains and see if it fogs up again.

so I finally found a fix for the condensation in the tail lights. in this pic below you will see the red circle on the bottom left. this is where i found water to sit and cause condensation to form. so i took the tail light out and found that water leaks into the 2 holes in the back below the black plastic "shelf". thats the green section of this pic. the 2 holes are where the lens snaps into the body of the tail lights. I found that once the condensation drys up i filled these holes in with window sealer. I have not had anymore condensation since i filled these 2 holes up. any questions just ask.

so an update. I have found that sealing the 2 holes that didn't stop water getting into the light and condensating. so the last thing you need to do is put sealer around the gasket between the gasket and the body.
whats happening now is that water is getting in between the gasket and the body. try this too.

Yep, that's exactly what I had to do on my AP1. it was barely leaking through the gasket. A little dab of silicone sealant took care of it.
