cheap way just drill a small hole in the bottom then let water leak out, then get a hairdryer make the heat go into the hole and it should dry up the residue then with the hole in the bottom it wont build up anymore

Had similar problem, took to mechanic to reseal tail-light and got it done for $50. Not worth the effort for such a small price in my opinion

get windscreen sealer for a couple dollars from your repco/autobarn, and seal it yourself..

it took me literally 10 mins to take light housing out, dry, put back in, and seal

in my case (R33) i took a good 2/3hours maybe even more for the whole thing but they are real to take out, require ALOT of force. I thought it was the seal around the tail light that went bad but it wasnt coz it still does the same thing

it actually was the seal between the reverse light section and brake light section (if you have an r33 you know what i mean)

ended up doing what the fellow up above said, drilled small holes and never looked back!

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
