So the gasket everyone talks about changing is between the housing and the car body. It seems if that was the reason for the condensation that we would also have trunks full of water.

When your windows fog up, your car isnt full of water. At least mine isnt.

re: unfortunately

unfortunately i have the rear taillights condensation syndrome. and unfortunately after a good shower, compartment that holds the spare tire has some water buildup there as well. i looked at the trunk seal and is perfectly fine. i'm looking for the inlet for the water now. you may want to check your spare tire area to see if there are any water leaks.

Check the power antenna and its associated drain tube.

Good call. The hose had been pulled out of the drain in my first SVX. This would result in water collecting inside the left rear fender well.

I also believe a pair of sunroof drains are routed through the C-pillar. Not sure how you can check them, though.
