Hi to everyone, recently bought a 944 s2 and just going through my to do list.The first was to seal rear lights,thought about silicone but remembered i had some foam sealer that comes with a s/s sink and is in a roll.Worked a treat all tested and put back,and easily removed when needed.
Thanks for all the good advise and tips on here.Hope this one helps someone out.

Hi and welcome :hello2: I need to do this, as I'm putting another set of rear light on mine, so I might try it.

Then I'll post those lights to you Rob, :oops:

Due to the current economic climate, the light at the end of the tunnel has been switched off!

Did mine a week ago with neoprene rubber foam strip, 10mm x 6mm thick. Works a treat and the light can be removed with no hassles, unlike silicone sealant.

Hey Carrera RSR, it's been a few years since you used the neoprene strips to seal the rear lights. Can I ask how they've held up?
