    Hi y’all. What’s the best silicone to use when covering up the screws on the oem roof rack to prevent leaking?

    I used the grey stuff because that's what I had lying around. Is yours used? I bent up some spring clips out of stainless Tig wire to hold the nut on the backside of the rack so it's easy to reinstall

    My oem roof rack is brand new. I haven’t install it yet. I’ll probably get around to installing it this weekend.
