Washed the car today. Washed under the hood and all around the lights. Wanted to get a coat of wax on the spots that got sealant/goo gone on them.

No condensation or leakage.

FML. Got condensation in one of my headlights and of course it's the one that isn't messed up. Probably because I was either rushing through it or pulled it out early.

I think I might be able to get it fixed without taking the whole light apart. Should just be able to heat up the sealant that's on there now, then press the lights together some more and just add more sealant. This makes sense right?

Dee or Mark, do you have any of that rubber butyl sealant left or should I order more? Shouldn't need much, provably just have to add more in certain spots.
