Water can also get into the trunk if the rear S2 tailights are not sealed well to the frame. Everything is still holding including a very rainy trip to Central PA this weekend that turned into an ice then snow storm.

Late update:
The problem came back a week or so ago when it rained. My friend noticed it as we were walking towards the car. So I did a little more research, and came across this gem of a reply:

You can even see the residue where the water flowed and then dripped onto the the white bulb connector!! So spread the word, don't replace your taillight gaskets if you don't have to and just silicone the slit.

Good catch - I'll have to look inside my trunk for water after a rainstorm or a wash.
