Well, if it leaks and fills up do what i did and just get a new one... If your other side is old it might not look great with one new and one faded...so their is a method to make it look new..try a search...

I had the same issue with my T/A taillights and front turn signal housings. After helping a friend on his mercedes, I noticed they use small holes on the underside of the housing to allow for water to drain. I ended up drilling some small holes in the bottom of each housing and havent had issues of moisture (did this about 8 yrs ago).
