I had the same problem! It turns out there isn't really a "leak" as you think of it. The taillight housing was designed very poorly. There are 4 places where water sits on top of the gaskets on the left and right side. i replaced my gaskets thinking that would solve the problem. BUT, the new ones were saturated and leaking through just like the old ones! what i did, was drill holes in the bottom of each of these areas, and put a tube through from top to bottom. the water now has a place to drain out, it will not sit on top and eventually come through the gasket!

How do you prevent condensation in your parking lights?
Parking lights are supposed to be sealed. If you are getting water, there must be a crack or seam or gasket that failed. You can buy replacements or, if you can dry it out, you could caulk it with 100% silicone caulk.

Condensation in tail lights?
You can get condensation in your tail lights from a small leak that lets moisture inside the plastic cover. Moisture can get inside the plastic cover if it is not sealed tight or if there is a small crack.

If I'm not mistaken you should have sealed beam headlights as mine does. If you are getting water into a sealed beam headlight you will have to replace the lamp. The old one is no longer sealed.

That depends on what brake lights you have. If you have the squared ones with the reverse lights built in, those covers are held in with screws. If you have the Truck Lite sealed lights, you don't take those off - you replace the entire unit.
