clear silicone works well...i sealed my new lights with them before i put them in...plus you could drill small holes in the bottom of the lights...i don't do that but others do.

I put RTV on about every square inch. Somehow still after a hard rain they would fog up.

I drilled 3 small holes in the top just behind where the clear meets the black plastic. Now no water stays in them, lord knows how it was getting in.
