condensation in aftermarket tail lights
I have condensation in my tail lights. Anyone have any suggestions what may be done to get it to dry out and prevent it from happening again? Or am I pretty much screwed?

The condensation is inside the lens. I am thinking that maybe I should take them apart and reseal them. However, I'm not sure about how to do it. I have read about putting them in the oven for about 10 min @ 200*. But I have also read that you should just carefully pry the lens off. I have 3rd Generation Altezzas. Also, what kind of RTV should I get?

I had the Altezza - Angel Eye type tails and this happened to me. It wouldn't go away so I ended up calling the company and sending them back. They said this happens frequently...
So tell them and try to get your money back. They should understand because this is a usual problem. The guys at Suncoast told me this happens with probably 2 out of 10 lights, which aren't good odds. And they understood because this even happened to them.
That's my advise.
