Waterproofing New Spotlights

[Colin 009]

Hi All, can anyone suggest a product that I can use to seal the lights.(waterproof)

Idealy something thats is flexi-able.

Also will need to connect wires, so are there any waterproof male/female connectors out there.

First thing to spring to mind would be silicon sealant

run a bead round the rim and push together, as for water proof wiring connectorshttp  http//www.vehicleproducts.co.uk do a good selection, but what could be better is to run a continous wires from the inside of the lamp high into the vehicle before having any connectors

Heat shrink is a good method of sealing the actual connectors when made up, put some silicon in the sleaving before shrinking it would do the job

Thanks Kev.

I'd use silicon as well 'cos it will withstand the heat, but bear in mind that the lamps need to breath as the air inside heats up.  I prefer to just wash mine out afterwards, if you seal them and the tinyest bit of water gets in it will never get out again.

Thanks, hadn't thought about breathing lights.
