Well after this weeks rain and me changing 2 DRL bulbs, I decided to fix it.
Without buying a bunch of stuff, I removed lenses, and the gallons of water stuck in them :

Cleaned, wetsanded and buffed lights, covered all cracks with silicone, and drilled 2 holes in bottom in case water gets in, it can drain :

Now I wont be changing DRL's everytime they get damp, and they are nice and even, and bright again (car looks much fresher!)

Also after the tune I averaged 27.5MPG (best was 23 before). This was running 87, getting stuck on 401 traffic, and a few WOT 2-3 gear pulls :
38L to fill from here :
