Default Does anyone remember the post about...

I remember reading a post about someone with a solution to the tail light lip holding water after washing by puting some kind of silicone seal strip or something of the sort. I have searched a lot but can't find it. TIA

I bet the leaf blower drying method would blow the water out and you wouldnt have to worry about it anymore. I have never had this problem though.

Yeah, I've done that or let it set facing uphill in the sun for awhile and keep wiping the lip but i was hoping to find the thread where someone had a solution. Thanks though.

I just drilled little holes in mine. Can't see them, the lens covers them up.
