Yes I used one but did not seem to seal but could have a leak from some where else .Do you happen to know if it is possible to get condensation under head liner because these drips only seem to happen some times.
Thanks

All silicone sealer is about the same
The colors and the O2 sensor safe stuff you "do not" need
Use clear if you use any at all
The new gasket should seal, and you can use two gaskets if it doesn't
You "can" use some silicone to stick two gaskets together
But
I wouldn't put any on the truck body or the lamp housing

Theres an upper panel in the roof
If you had ingress, putting a new gasket/housing on would not remove the water that was still in there
with heat and cool you would potetnially recondense it or driving it might make it pool up and leak down with movement
Theres also the windshield to check
you should also check the gutters above the doors for separation from the cab
