Condensation in my 03 tail lights
I had my truck in the shop to get a roll pan put on and I have condensation in the lights now. Do I have to take them apart or is there an easier way?

Every time i've had condensation problems, i've usually had to resort to taking them off and keeping them inside the house for a bit. And if really humid, a hair dryer works great. Hot enough to get that moisture out but not hot enough to hurt the plastic. Oh and blowing the air through one of the bulb sockets helps to facilite the hair dryer technique...

Well i guess anythings possible. The best place to look for cracks is where the Red translucent plastic is bonded to the black piece. Look for stress cracks. If there is some there along the seam, run a silicone adhesive in the seam and let dry. GE makes a good Si based Adhesive that Lowes, Home Depot carries.
