Box gets a lot of moisture on it.. Any ideas on how to prevent it?

I should not have said the whole trunk, it was the back half. But yeah it stopped the leak. I tried everything else first though, at one point I crawled through the back seat and was trying to find the leak with a flashligh, to no avail though.

 
It's a 2007 Chevy Malibu, and it hasn't been rear ended, but the person I bought it from had backed into a light pole, and the bumper is a little off, and the original taillight was cracked, so I replaced it.
.... I think what I just said may have answered my question, lol

 

 

Do you have pass through on your back seat..?? If so take your equipment out and see if you can see light shinning through.. Or if your small enough (a lil brother or tiny GF will work also) crawl in the trunk and feel for air coming in.... That's how I found my leak.. I did mine during a heavy rain... Was looking in the TOTALLY wrong area. Lol. Bought some 3m weather striping and solved it!

Haha, I may just have to crawl in the back sometime and see where it could be coming from. I checked today, and my box and amps had some cold frost on them... Not sure if that's good or bad.

I have to fold down my back seats to access the trunk, but I may just have a friend crawl in and see if they can feel any spots, or I may just do it myself. How would you apply the weather stripping to the trunk to fix it?
