Default 3rd brake light leak and change color

so the other day i went to Ogterrors house (Leo) to hang out and yeah w.e but we went to subway and roushnitemare (daniel) was sitting in the back and he told me my back headrest was all wet. So i took it out and saw it was all drenched in water, so today i took out my 3rd brake light and saw water was leaking through somehow. Took it apart for the hell of it and painted the inside black and sealed it back up very well lol

some pics






i did a crappy job because i wanna change it to LED later anyway lol

Did you just use RTV gasket maker to re seal it?
