its usually a faulty seal.

ive never done it but i'd guess you need to take it apart (on a dry day), wipe it down, and then reseal the thing. removal is pretty quick, but ive got no idea how easy sealing it properly would be.

ap2 tails FTW!

My 2000 had a factory recall. You should call up the dealership to see if yours does, too.

take out the tail light
take out the bulb and blow with hot air, use dryer or just wait til hot summer day..

and go buy silicon sealer from autopart store..
use black color one and reseal the light~
just go over the factory seal with the black silicon

If you don't want to bother with trying to repair it, just buy a new one. You can find them used for pretty cheap.
