            Did you seal the clear corner before you put it in?

                get some silicon or weather stripping and seal all the bulb openings and corners

                            drill like 1/16th inch holes in the very bottom and top of the lenses, it'll let the water evaporate/drip out.

                              i think actually it may have been because the 3057 DRL light was loose and not in all the way and water somehow got in there.. anyways. thanks for the tips guys.
