Water in trunk...coming in thru taillights
 
Now that I know how the water is getting into my trunk, is it easy to
seal the parts in the Taillight where it's coming in from??

Pretty easy. You have two options. Both start with taillight
disassembly. Then either

1
Replace the gaskets. See www.slhonda.com for new ones.

2
Thoroughly clean the old gaskets. Let dry completely. Buy a
tube of temperature appropriate caulking at Home Depot or
wherever and apply to both sides of the gasket, where it
touches the car frame or lamp assembly.
