Default Leaky headlight

Ok so after try number three i am convinced im missing something..

I opened up my headlights to add angel eyes, and black out the chrome..

Drivers side light is perfect, passengers side leaks like crazy..

Both lights were sealed using OEM Butyl rubber purchased from nissan.

has anyone had there lights leak anywhere besides the lense?

My wires enter the light behind the high beam bulb socket.. could it leak here?

thanks

Get some windshield sealant and cover the entire area where the lens and housing come together. Should solve all your troubles.
