Either the seam in between the two halves is cracked ,or the O ring on the bulb is missing or bad , or the bulbs aren't installed correctly .

I have drilled a 1/8 hole in the bottom of some that has worked well ..

To do all the work, it doesnt seem worth while to throw the old stock lights back in. They have Clear or smoked headlights forsale on ebay or LMCTRUCK.com For cheap. Makes the truck look better and cleaner.
