Default Right Tail Light Moisture

Hi,

I'm not sure because of the recent heavy rains or car wash caused my right rear tail-light to have water/moisture fog up badly inside the housing. I have not open the trunk compartment up to check if there is a leak.

Have anyone here experienced this before? and how to fix this problem let me know.

The left tai-light is still mint condition just the right one. =/

i</3 speedbumps did my headlight and his work turned out great. I'm not sure if you need to rebake your tails the same way you do the for headlights but if you need any of that work done, he would be the right guy to go to. Also, DIY isn't a bad idea either.

whats the deal with the ap2 tail light leak? and it seems to always be the passenger side. a friend of mines had the same issue and this was what he used, its a lil pricey but it seems to work for him its been 4 years and no leaks. he baked it removed the old glue and apply the epoxy on..
