one tail light is brighter. ahhh
a swift kick in the taillight outta do it that sucks 
hope it never happans to my t/a
holes for drainage will worsen the condensation inside the taillights. Before buying new ones, I would try to cook them in oven at 200f to try to take them apart and clean with acetone. buy a dollar tube of silicone sealant and take your time putting back together. This method is not proven, it is merely a friendly suggestion to save someone 180 bucks.

Also though that same light of mine that is messed up, also has a big long scratch through it. It was like that when I bought it so I have no idea what happened...I may just have to buy new ones...and maybe seal them up GOOD with silicone sealant all the way around...has anyone done this? I have the blue stuff.

Well its been a year already since this thread was last seen...
I have a new set of tail lights and I used a line of black RTV (so it isn't visible) around the edge where the water can leak in (the top edge) and sealed it up good. All new bulbs as well, all 8 of them. I'll hope for the best.

I have the same problem too.. It sucks I figured Id have to buy a new one .. My Drivers side was no where near as bright as my passenger side. I have moisture in the reverse light on the Drivers side so that gave me a decent idea that it would have to be changed sooner or later
