Good luck Afl. Not going to Sebring this year, looking for a house in SC instead.

David, my 5.0 has the same lights. They were bowing out in the middle as well. Also one of the sealed lights had condensation inside and not all the LED's inside were working and it had condensation. I drilled 1/8 holes (mentioned in previous posts) in the center at the bottom of the light. I also removed all three lights, cleaned the fiberglass of the original sealant (ETI uses Pro-Flex) and I used acetone (at one time suggested by Reece at ETI) to clean the shell of the Escape so the new Pro-flex will stick. I put sealant around the hole for the wires and the screws, then (as mentioned before used stainless steel new screws) sealed the top and sides of the light (leave a little open at the bottom to help drain water if it gets behind the light again). I was going to order new ones but hey the ones I had were,already pre-warped. And yes the lower lights did not warp and yes they made the change on these lights because of this issue. Best of luck!
