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

take the light off and seal it with some silicone...

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
