Tail light/Reverse light condensation.

Did a search, didn't find anything, must have used the wrong terms or something, as I find it extremely hard to believe I'm the only one with this problem. I just want to know if the condensation in my rear tail-light/reverse light centers is something to be concerned about. The issue seems to come and go with the rain/climate, and lingers for up to a week afterward. It hasn't caused a problem (other than aesthetics) yet, but I'd like some input on it.

I had condensation in my tail lights when I got my car (previous owner had it in a storage unit for a while)...

I took out all the trunk padding/carpets, let them dry out, and have not had a problem since. Just to be super-safe, I always pop the trunk and leave it open after washing to make sure that if some water does get in the trunk, it will evaporate away.

Hmmm, my carpet is dry as a bone, and I always jam the car after washing.
