Does anyone know of a good adhesive to reapply the rubber seal to headlight assembly, a clear color would be best. This is the large seal that goes between the headlight assembly and intake hood.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I used 3M weather strip adhesive on mine, it cure's a yellowish cream color witch you see on the bottom of the headlight. But it's holding for 4yrs now with no issues.

I used the 2 sided tape, that came in a 3M plastic window kit. It's very thin and works well has held for a couple years now.

Thanks guys for your help, I have settled on using Goo which is an all season automotive adhesive for attaching pretty everything to any vehicle.

That's what I was going to suggest, but the 2 sided tape would likely be easier to remove if you had to?
I know the Marine Goop is tough stuff so I assume the Automotive Goop would be as well.

Hi! guys, I'm not a fan of that 3M tape for it always comes of for me, so no point using it.
I used the clear Super Goo and it worked great, I just let it cure over night and installed assembly on my sled, just like new!
