light cluster sealant?

1781cc · 08-12-11, 11:28 AM

hi guys,

I am looking at fitting some Red tresser style lights to my B3 at the rear, but the ones i have for replacement dont have any of that black water sealant stuff on them.

Any suggestions on where/what I need to do this and ensure the car is water tight?

thanks

I used this stuff when i did mine, was about £6 from the local motor factors, and so far seems to be fine anyway.....

You can get the proper stuff from audi i believe, i think its called "butyl tape".

3M Strip Caulk. Comes in a whacky hexagonal box.

Cheapest from your local Porsche dealer.

Audi AKD 497 010 04 colour code R10. But 3M Strip Caulk is what you'll get.

Hi guys, got a box of Audi stuff on the way, more than I need, so if anyone wants to buy any lengths let me know

Thanks

A box is about enough for fifteen cars.

One way to make friends on here.
