i just used 3/4 inch weather foam seal. it is that stuff that is sticky on one side and is black foam. it kept the tails from fogin too.

I had a pair of tailights that i got off the Internet... they leaked so bad!!! I found that nothing helped, turns out i traded them at a local place for something better.So I know what your going through, but don't have any really good advice!

yo man i had the same problem. the way to do it is go and buy some silicone sticky **** at a auto store and cover up the gap between the body and the tail lights.
