    Well then don't reseal them... If they leak, Brock told you so. If not, you win. The odds are not with you though

    They're gonna leak.

    They all leak.

    Maybe not the first time it rains, and maybe they won't both leak at the same time, but they will leak where the clear joins the back.



    Let us know how the light pattern looks at night up against a wall that's about 30ft away... preferably with pictures.

    No, they have to come out.

    I ordered mine from Protuninglab.com I took another look at them and you can tell the top has been sealed but it seems like the side could use some. Seems like they have already been done but I might take the time to do it anyways just to be sure. Would I be able to get most of it by just taking the grill and bumper off? I dont want to mess with the wiring, I know nothing about it.
