msgtg is way out in the middle of nowhere way down south, definitely rural WV.

Although I did not silicone the lights, they come with a rubber gasket, or at least the old 86 OEM style did.

For some reason the old style has a raised ring around the screws.
As fast as it starts leaking, I am starting to think the water is entering around the screws.
Since I think I have tomorrow off, I am going to try a dab of body putty (that nice sticky type that never gets hard) down in each screw hole before I put the screw in.

I would almost take mine off and close the holes, but I am licensed heavy enough and have a DOT number, so they have to be there.
