That is the one I do know about was wondering if there might be some thing better out there that has a good seal around the sides or does every one have to silicone them in and go through that every time they change a bulb .
Thanks very much for That

Yes, another **** poor design IMO
Every one I have ever had out, had signs of a water leak
I use some clear silicone sealer
or
Uncured windshield butyl rubber rope to seal them

This stuff you can take 1 inch and make it 10 inches long the diameter of a BB
Then wrap the lamp and install it
It will never leak, and you can reuse the butyl next time

Its real similar to plumbers putty."]https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.f150forum.com-vbulletin/2000x1124/butyl_rubber_cord_172820c5e9184b155fb2773ba7e87fc4 6cf9ca01.jpg[/img]
