Water in my factory rear spoiler light

guys when i bought my max it didn't have the factory spoiler on it so i had it installed however after a couple of weeks i noticed four or five of my lights
off that beam were out because of water or condinsation it's a closed unit
so anyway i bought a new one and WTF condinsation and water is back in
the lights are all on but for how long is there any way to stop this

you can always drill a small hole on the bottom, so water can escape and you won't get condinsation!

either u tighten the bolts to hard or you have really bad luck

drill 2 holes on opposite ends
use a hair dryer to dry out all the water (takes 5-10 min)
seal the holes and any other crakes or seals on the light with silicone
i did this on my clear brake light and used "Stick and Seal" from home depot
works awesome no water since then
