Looks like my passenger side tail light is taking in some water. I noticed the other day some condensation inside the casing.
Is there any known fix for this or should I just replace it?
Thanks

Mine did this very same thing. I pulled them both off and drilled 5 small .098 diameter holes on the bottom side, sealed around the outside seam with black RTV and they have not done it since. As for the condensation already in there, just let it sit out in the sun a few times. It will go away. Hope this helps you.

Letting this condition happen to long will results in oxidation that will need to be puffed away.

Its best to fix this asap so it does not cloud the area your seeing the water at.

As far as I know there are no factory vent holes. You likely have a seem splitting where the factory rtv/seal is at. Use clear pure silicon around the seal, just clean with alcohol wipes or a rag first.
