Re: ?clear corners? Moisture usally gets into the lense because of bad bonding between the clear lense and the housing, cheap reflective shield inside the lense ( causes warping ) or the person didn't re-install the foam seals on the bulb sockets. I'm really not sure why there's rubber plug on the back ( there on the stock ones also ) but I guess if you had enough water in the lense you could drain most of it out, what some guys have done is drill a small weep hole in the bottom of the lense for drainage. I know in the past there have been several complaints about APC lenses, what brand do you have?
