Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just managed to pick up a set of Litronic headlights so I can finally upgrade from the halogens but one of them needs a seal. I poked around a bit and was reading in a couple places someone mentioned they were only available if you bought the headlight new, surely that can't be true? Does anyone have a part # for them or know where I could find one?

POST 2Original post

Try autoatlanta, a pic would help too. MK1 or MK2? Doesn't look like a seal is available:

POST 3Original post

Headlight seals are not available from the factory unfortunately. You have to go through a used parts dealer to get ones in good condition then submerge them in aerospace protectant or any rubber restorer. Look at LA dismanteler on the internet.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

ugh that's ridiculous...what about a possibility to reuse the one i have on my current halogen headlight? MK1 btw.

POST 5Original post

Quotes source post: 15110006

Its crazy how many parts like that only come with the entire unit... ugh

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

This is unreal to me...gonna try and take out my old halogen light to see if I can reuse the seal...otherwise I may be looking to return this light. Ugh.

POST 7Original post

Use the ones from your halogen lights. Just restore them with UV protectant like 303 aerospace protectant.

POST 8Original post

This black seal does the job and looks great. Available on Amazon Sponge Neoprene Stripping With Adhesive 1/4 Inch Wide X 1/4 Inch Thick X 35 Feet Long Price:$10.78 Free Shipping for Prime Members

POST 9Original post

Just used this yesterday, came out pretty good. https://www.homedepot.com/p/M-D-Buil...1025/202066509 If you line if up just the like factory one sits, the first hump on the strip will push up nicely against the fender. I had to play with it a little to get a good fit all the way around. Mine is still off a little but my headlights are a pain to get in and out so I am satisfied for now.
