.... which is a very common leakage point on c. 1990 Hondas. Many reports are in
the archives on this.

If it appears to be the gaskets, one may disassemble the taillight assemblies
and either

1. Buy new gaskets. Maybe $6 apiece. Replace.

2. Buy temperature appropriate silicone caulk. Remove old gaskets. Clean
thoroughly. Caulk both sides of the gasket where it contacts car parts.
Re-install. The drawback to this is that, next time the gaskets leak, cleaning
off the old caulk is a pain in the neck.

I used 2. above almost two years ago on my 91 Civic's taillight gaskets. No
problems since.
