Fogging in TYC tails

the title really says it all. My tails are fogging up. It started in the winter as far as I know. Is there a quick fix for this? Thanks guys

only thing i can think of is taking the lens off, scraping all the old sealant out of there and resealing it with silicone...that is what people are doing with the sonars fogging and it seems to work for them...

Pics?

Also, not sure how the TYCs seal, but the OEM ones use a rubber gasket instead of traditional silicone.

Mine haven't fogged up yet but the paint seems to be peeling around the edges. I can see the black paint "flaking" off. I'm sure it's happening to some of you with the TYCs...
