Wheel arch light access sealant?

[FourWheelDrift]

Never had to change a bulb before and it's on the front left and I can't get my arm round far enough through the grill due to some pipes in the way.

So tommorow I shall be mostly unsticking the wheel arch access plate and re-sealing it.

But what is it sealed with, what do I need to buy and where from?

Thanks

Sikaflex, OH

Available at most Motor factors, Partco etc.

PS, I'll leave this one where it is to!

Your local motor factors will have a silicon bonder for about £4 a tube. Just ask them for silicon black, and you'll be fine

Well all done, 3/4 hour after I started I now seem to have an uncanny ability to see with my fingers.........

After having 1 rusted in screw (only 2 out of three holding it on, one missing) and the other with a stripped head a connector that seemed welded onto the old bulb and a spring clip that tried to clip the cables, pliers and me into the pod at every opportunity until finally the ray of light at the end of the tunnel, well actually a working main headlight at the end of my garage to be be precise Then screwed the panel back on, this time with stainless steel screws, stuck up without getting myself stuck to the car, I like the car, but not that much to be permantly attached to it .

Next time I'm taking the bloody wheel off.
