    I recently bought a 2002 grand prix gt and it has some condensation in the taillights and some in the headlights as well. What can I do to fix this?

    If you want a really nice set of lights get some led lights. You might be able to seal up your stock ones a little bit but chances are they will still leak.

    You can't separate the tail lights and reseal them?
