Simple Fix before Tail light replacement

Hey everyone, my ‘13 V8V has a dying tail light.

I’ve had the condensation issue the last 4months and it just now started really dying out, only a few of the multiple LED’s light up so it looks really bad

any simple fixes before I pay $1400 to get the AM dealer to replace it?

E-Bay has many tail lights - a few things: make sure they work, and there is a grey and black trim of the tail lights - make sure you have the right color.

The other alternative is Divatech who'll reengineer the lights and seal them properly.

And they are not quite set up yet to do them.

They are getting it organized but it'll be a couple of weeks before they are doing it. Their plan is to have one day per fortnight where they repair all the taillights and do the upgrade.
