If there is a whole on the top, when the light is on, the hole will be wet. If its on the bottom the hole will be wet when the lights are off.

Once you are ready to put it back on, check the O-ring seal. Make sure there are no kinks when putting it back in. -Chris Hightower- -Hightower Performance Products, LLC (Oo.�xx�.oO) o xxxxxxxxx o
