The Fix

You have got to love people like MGD. Thank goodness you weren't having trouble with a flat on the side of the road and he was passing. His comment would be "it's only a flat tire he can read the owners manual".

I had the same leaking problem when I installed my Sirius reciever through my 3rd light. All it takes is a good bead of clear silicon around the light and that should solve the problem.

Anytime you need help on anything regarding your KR ask it here. That is one of the main benefits of this site. Someone will gladly help you without having to jump through hoops for a simple polite answer.

I avoided installing my XM/GPS antenna here for just this reason - I've heard of this problem on nearly all models of trucks, not just Fords.

Hopefully it will be an easy fix with some silicon and nothing more
