Default Led tail light help!

First off I am new to this forum and I have a question that I've bee searching for the answer too but can't seem to find. I bought a pair of black led tail lights when I bought my new truck and the passenger side one continues to get moisture and condensation in it. I have got as much out as I can with a hair dryer but can't seem to get it all..I have tried to reseal it with silicone and it seemed to help a bit but the moisture is still there..

My question is...is it ok to put the led tail lights in the oven to dry them out and so the original seal try to "reseal itself"? If yes how long should they stay in for and what temp? ( I didn't know if the oven would hurt the led bulbs)

Any advice and directions is greatly appreciated!

Unfortunately moisture is a Problem with all aftermarket led tail lights, I won't suggest baking them to remove moisture....

plenty have baked them, I'm sure. Cook them, remove all the sealant and re-seal with quality butyl from your local auto parts store.
