Default tail light condensation

Does anyone else get condensation in their tail lights? I'm getting some in my tail lights and was wondering what is causing this. How can I fix this? Thanks

It's really common in our cars, I think it's because the seal around the tail light is poorly done (or so I've been told). I've been looking at a set of the black LED tail lights anyway to kill two birds with one stone.

use clear silicon and seal around the lense. also do same thing for the foglights too cuz you will get condensation on them as well.

Can anyone show me what Halo LED lights look like? The idea sounds cool, but I'm not sure what they look like on the Monte.
