I've had this issue in all of my outer rear lights in the past.
I was able to rectify this in the past by drilling a small hole in the bottom of the lights to allow for drainage.
This light for some reason just will not stop fogging up. Any suggestions? I've already drilled both bottom corners.

Take the lights out and remove the bulb holders and you should try and reseat the sponges and clean the dirt out.

I removed mine, dried it out with a hairdryer and then went over the seals with clear silicone. It's been fine since

Another tip after you've dried them out is to place those silica gels at the back of the light it helps absorb any moisture that might leak through. I done it on both my tailight and one of the headlights that was leaking moisture. Solved the issue

Cannot get this last bloody light to stop it. This is my set of ed30 rears and I've fixed 7 in the past.
I'm convinced someone is injecting water into it at night :signLOL:
