    Hi all, this problem started last winter. It appears that the sealed joints on the tail light lenses are not sealing anymore, as they both fill up with water after several days of significant rain. I have to remove them and dump the water out before it reaches the lamps and sockets. I was thinking of drilling some drain holes on the bottom of the lense assemblies. Anyone else had this problem?

    EVERY ONE that owns a GP has experienced this issue... get the smallest drill bit u can find and drill a hole or 2 in an inconspicuous part of teh light.

    I had same issue due o a small crack on top, this helped for me How To Remove & Stop Headlight or Tail Light Water Condensation - Pictures Illustrated Automotive Repair Guide

    took me 2 times to get it completely empty and now no more water gets in.
