Headlight sealing
i was looking for the best way to seal a set of headlights. They are the gunmetal housing from tornactive. I want it to look good and seal well. I hear that i have to open them up and reseal them and some say just put silicon on the top. What do i need to do?

just get the silicon you want to use put some on and have a dish of water there to dip your finger in then, withyour finger wet just run it along where you put the sealent and smash it down basicly

anything from liquid nails to clear bathroom caulk will work. but use somthing in a hand tube not a caulking gun either its a pain in the *** trying to squeeze the long tube and aim.

Rep Power: 0 just use glass clear silicone...... put enough on...... than the secret to tight seal is to go over
the cracks with extra silicone..... and let it dry.... make sure the headlight holds tight while drying

Rep Power: 0 yea just lay some silicone, super glue, or any kind of good bong into the groove of the headlight and just mash those things together, give them some time to dry too and there ya go
