Water getting into Head lights + Tail lights
I have a 95' SC300. I realize that there is probably a crack or something that's letting water get into my lights, is there a way to seal it up? I like my lights, but they just aren't sealed. My right hand side tail has a crack on the lens, is there a way to fix it? I like the tail lights and I don't want any others unless I could find one just like it (95 tail light lens'). My friends tell me to use silicone to seal the lights to keep water from getting in anymore. I'm hoping for some really good suggestions guys

Sealing the lights might work on keeping future water from entering but the water that is inside will have no place to go. A cheap fix for that is to drill a small hole CAREFULLY in to lowest section on the light. Is the lens crack is large enough I would say cut your losses and get new lights. Do your have pics of the damage?

It's kind of a crack from the bottom up half way. It's not THAT bad, but it is a problem. I managed to get the water out from opening them after heating them in the oven, but that crack is just going to keep getting water in.

Use rubber sealant. Or silicone. that is your cheapest way.
I had the same problem, A light bulb blew so I took apart my taillights. There was at least a cup of water in there. Then I sealed it with rubber sealant.
