lol i have had this problem so many times with my headlights..lol it has took me a while to try and find something to fix them and after talking to Krappy i think we have found a solution that works....you know you have to bake them at like 200 degrees for like 10 minutes take them completely apart and dry them really really really really good..then when you seal them back i used this rubber cement stuff i got at wally world called "household welder contact adhesive" it think that will do it...cause i ahve tryed it o mine this last time and they have not leaker yet and after all this rain today this will be a good test and then tomorrow if it is warm enough i am going to try washing my car...i mean hell you would figure after the all the damn trouble i've been thru with these damn headlights i would of learned a little something lol

goto walmart, auto parts store, true value etc. and get some silicone. black or clear works fine. you would want to bake the lights first and make sure there's no moisture inside. let it air dry for a day or so...and seal them back up.
