The water got in because the taillight lenses are sometimes warpped and don't seal. The dealer offered to caulk them under the warranty but not replace them. When they are caulked it makes it tough to replace a bulb when you do need to. That's when I decided to replace the whole taillight.

Help me out. I bought the Harbor Freight lights but did not end up installing them. The HF lights are much heavier. The stock lights, made by Bargman (I think) are light and primarily held on by a layer of caulking.
I'm assuming you put the HF lights where the stock ones were located. How did you attach them? Is there a layer of plywood behind the lights that would hold screws?
Checked them on the bench and WOW they are bright.
