Water in driver side amber running light

Hi all!
Just recently picked up a 2021 320 Boondock.
I noticed I have water in the driver side amber running light...took off the chrome trim ring and looks like the bezel can't be popped to drain the water. It looks glued to the white base, obviously not glued enough to keep the water out.
Now, I don't really want to drive the trailer back 100km to have the light replaced under warranty, so I wonder if anyone has had a similar issue and any solutions..at all?
I may try to remove the screws then gently pry the base plate off of the wall, unfortunately it will mean re-siliconing it.

    Try calling your dealer first and report the issue, the light should not be full of water.  Then if you are able to replace the light yourself, the dealer will send you a replacement light under the warranty.  The LED lights are sealed units, not way to drain them off.

    I have had the same issue with my 2019 320 BDL.  The light still works, however.

    I have the same issue on our 2015 since we got it one year old.  Elsie sent me a new one (back in good ole days) and I still haven't replaced.  It still works, dries out half the year, wet the other half.  If it goes out I'll replace it.  I hear the wires are cut pretty short so you don't have much to work with.

    Thanks for all the feedback folks...I did talk to Michael at NuCamp and he said I would probably need a new light, I should have asked if they could ship me one. I will talk to the dealership on Monday.
