New mod for my 2019 TRD OR

Hi, I bought my 2019 TRD OR last month I already replaced the front grill with the TRD Pro type and added the 4 LED's across the front grill. I think it makes a big difference it looks much better. I am now contemplating adding the Prinsu roof rack but I am really concerned about rain coming in at some point. Does anybody have any recommendations on this?

 

Most racks will come with rubber washers for between the mounts and the roof, double up on those washers ( roof-washer-mount-washer bolt) and a dab of axle grease around the edges would not hurt.

 

ddettamanti, do you think Silicone is a permanent solution? Im worried in Hot humid Houston over time Silicone breaking down with heat, vibration, wind....

 

Use automotive Butyl Rubber, it comes in a roll and is used to seal tail lights and windows.

 

Thank you, I believe that is a better alternative to Silicone that breaks down with heat and environmental elements quicker....

 

I used a gob of clear silicone & a small cut out of sheet metal to plug the exterior gas hole after removing the interior gas tank on my old '70 Chevy C-20 (behind the front seat). It's still there to this day, 17 years later & hasn't a hint of leaking.
