Lights filling up with water

Removing the rear clusters to get the orange bit out was bit of a bad move since they now leak.

What is the stuff Nissan uses to seal them with. Looks like a black sealent of some sort and where can I get it to reseal them?

Cheers

hey man had a similar problem. what i did to get rid of it, is at the bottom of the lights i drilled a 1.5mm hole about 3 holes on each side and it was all sweet. water comes in but doesnt stay, therefore drys out qucikly and no rust.

otherwise just use silicone, but i wouldnt got for the black one as its quite messy and hard to come off if u get it somewhre on the car or the lights.

Clear silicon is the way to go i think.

Home bease or B&Q do specific sealant for outdoor use. It comes in black (and other colours) and seems to be the same consistency as the stuff Nissan use. It's also cheap as day old chips :D

Cool, I got some clear silicon sealent and used a shed load on the clusters, popped em back in and looks like I got a great seal. If they do leak though I'll drill a holl as suggested :)
