I agree, If you have clearance lights they are the culprit. Mine leaked so bad I'm considering replacement with Recons.

Don`t do it...my Recons leaked and cracked from the sun in under 1 yr.

I tried re-sealing them and ended up putting the stockers back on. I sprayed them black , and cleared them so they look like aftermarket ones , and still light up amber at night...and they DON`T leak.

I used Kenworth style mini LED's. They have a nice thick padded seal! I'll have to add some pics!
