Formula Taillights leak?
I have a 1994 formula and my taillights leak water. Not into the car but actually into the taillight. One of the actual bulbs burnt out cus of this. Should I just get new lights, or is it just something simple?
try to seal the plastic in the tailight housing.., if its too big of a leak, you need new tailights...ive read of this happening to alot of pontiac lights..(including mine) , the plastic actualy seperates on the taillight housing..hasnt happened to the new one...yet

I just only used white caulking behind the kidney shaped thing(you can see where the lines are)and when this dried,Iused a permanent black marker.Also caulked the little hole inside the kidney shaped thing,as this is where I think the water comes from.(The hatch).Hope this helps.(When you pop the hatch and look down on the left,and the right side,this is where I caulked.)
What did you expect from GM, They did have a TSB (technical service bulletin) for 3rd gens where they wanted you to notch the front bumper with a hand saw, in order to allow the lights to prperly drain and not fog up.
