Exterior Lamp Sealing

Care should be exercised to prevent waterleaks at the tail lamp area when sealing surfaces are disturbed. Damaged gaskets should be replaced.

Prior to installation, be sure bulbs, sockets and lenses are completely dry to reduce chances of condensation forming in lamps.

If new gaskets are not installed, the use of sealer (body caulking compound or equivalent) is recommended at critical areas and where the old gaskets have taken a set.

NOTE: Care should be taken not to use any harsh chemicals when cleaning the exterior of taillamps. Suggested cleaners are a mild soap and water or Varnish Maker's and Painter's (VM&P) Naptha. VM&P naptha is a specific type of naptha and should not be substituted by any other type of naptha.
