After removing the black bitumastic/sealant stuff, how did you reseal the lenses to the case? Would clear silicone sealant do a good job?

Hi TC

I used a product called CT1 in black, it's an expensive sealant (around £9.00, but I am lucky I work for a tool and fixing company so I got it at cost!!!), it's the best sealant that we supply, and it is easy to remove if needed, the lamps are CFL (compact florescent lamps) so I am not sure how long they will last (probably the rest of the life of the car!!!) but changing them will not be a problem in the future if I need too.

Great Job well done.

I need to reseal my nearside headlamp so may get round to fitting them.

How do they get on with the BCH/CAMBUS ?

I have wired them into the ignition so they don't effect the cambus.
