Like everyone said, if you keep the old material in the little valley of the light and use a heatgun to reseal, you shouldn't need anything else, no silcone or the nissan stuff.
I've done this on 3 cars, it's worked every time. THe ones on my accord are the worst, one will lightly fog after a wash. So only with a ton of water, and it goes away in an hour or so. But using a heat gun makes this alot easier.

I just gave mine their first coat of paint, and still kinda unsure about what I want to do about the amber strip. I masked off the signal reflector(the back part that has all the disco ball styled surface).
And now I wanna know what you guys think,
-Smoke the amber strip and put in and amber 1157 led
-Clear it and put and amber led
-Leave it orange and put a super white bulb
-Black out the amber strip reflector(removable piece behind the orange plastic) and clear it with an amber led.
Only thing I DO NOT wanna do is go with a white turn signal light. Attracts too much attention with the Montreal cops. (I'm in Canada btw)
