Water/Condensation in Tail Lights
Any DIY instructions and/or videos on fixing water/condensation in my tail lights?
My understanding is that I need to:
1. Remove bumper
2. Remove tail light housing
3. Replace gasket (not sure about this step... I did this with my S2000, and I am assuming that the fix might be the same)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

You have a few gaskets you could replace. Turn signal gasket and LED board gasket and I believe each bolt connecting to the car has little circle gaskets as well. Be sure to check around the light for any hairline cracks.

I wouldn't call this "easy", but yes...it is true that headlight condensation issues are a major pain to troubleshoot and diagnose.
My mechanic is suggesting that the easy fix is to just drill a few small holes at the bottom of the tail light to let the water build up drain away and call it done. I am tempted to take the easy way out on this one.
