Default I'm Leaking!

So I recently did the DIY clear corner and bulb mod and it looks sick I'm quite happy with it. All was good for a few days, but then moisture got into one of the headlights now it looks bad. Should I cut it open, dry it out and re seal it? Is that the only obvious answer or does someone know a trick to help me make sure it stays. I used silicone the first time to seal it. Is there something better?

Silicon should have worked, you must have missed a spot. I'm still sealed after months of washing and seattle rain.

you'd think silicone would seal good. i heard it does let in moisture though. what about a good epoxy.
a clear one that you can see.

It's worth a shot, but silicone when done properly is good enough. I'd just remove the back of the lights and dry them out, then reseal.
