’73 Cuda – Passanger Tail Light melting housing – FIXED

Thx in advance for any advice.
I have an issue with the pass. rear tail light is melting the housing.
I have replaced the rear lens with new and the platics is thinner than I remember ( resto shop replaced the housing) on older cars.
The black plastic housing got so hot , the plastic that contacts the metal housing, melted onto the bulb!!! and the socket fell out of the housing.

sooooo....do I need to vent the housing? maybe drill a decent size hole in the top ? there is no hole anywhere...
