Default Sealing turn signal lights

Anybody have any recommendations for a sealant for my turn signal lights in the front? I washed the car this morning and when I got to work they were really foggy inside.

(I have black housing turn signal lights so it's very noticeable)

Yeah, I honestly have no idea why more people don't do that. They just throw away the first set and buy a new set hoping for it to seal properly, then throw away the second set because it's the same as the first set, then post up that clear corners are crap because they aren't sealed, when all it took was a $5 tube of RTV properly applied...

Yeah it was an easy fix too. I wasn't about to send them back. They're Depo brand black housing turn signals and look great. The pic is in my signature although they were kind of foggy there.

I ordered a pair of Neondials clear corners and heard that they go the extra mile and seal them anyways. Well just incase I used the same RTV clear silicone that was left over from my Whistler mod to seal them again! Can never be to cautious ha! I even sealed the side markers that came with the corners too
