Just silicone around the edge, anywhere that was joined I sealed. I've had two pairs of ebay headlights, the first were awesome, the second needed to be sealed....it just depends what you get. GL on it though.

Worse case scenario, if there is a leak, before sealing you have to pull the bulbs out and use a hairdryer to get that condensation out....I hated doing that hahah felt soo lame

Those headlights look Awsome! Good job on paint color and body parts. All good choices! Can you post a link to where you got your headlights? ( I know ebay, but what vendor?) Again, awsome looking car!

Always a good idea to use silicone to seal aftermarket headlights.

The best stuff to use is flowable clear silicone by Permatex. it has a picture of a windshield on the front. The tube is white.

The flowable stuff will allow you to use less silicone and it will get into the little crevices around edges where the clear lens meets the headlight assembly. Less mess too.

You'll know the first or second time you wash your car if they are sealed correctly as-is. You could end up with condensation (Water droplets) inside the headlight.
