Ya man just wait cuz you won't want to redo them down the road. No use going out in this cold weather to have it turn out subpar.

I use the Automotive Goop stuff as suggested to me. Theres noway the things coming off those headlights, just gotta make sure you put tons on and let it dry properly. Only hard part is securing the flap that wraps around, going to have to reseal mine somehow.

yeah I see above... but what type of "silicone" was used? It must be adhesive, not just silicone caulking.

Sorry dude...I was meaning for the OP to see your comment above, since he was asking what to use to stick them on, and I agree with your post.
