        Hello,sir,

        on clair tail ligh yellow sealent just look like ugly.

        it the first think you see went you look a the tail light it is this yellow sealant.

        clear sealent or silicone exist why big compagnie like apc use cheap sealent and turn yellow.

        I have some windows have 20 years and the silicone still clear.

        thank for give you advise.

          Well you can put them in an oven and separate the light housing. Scrap off the old sealant and then reapply a sealant of your choosing. Depends on how much you like the way the lights look and how much work you are willing to do.

                Dam it
                I should have gotten here sooner.

                We already found that the tail light cannot be separated, using the oven or anyother method. Alot of people have tried this before, and always ended is disaster, the plastic of the light melts. THe headlights no problem though.

                Apc does make a poor quality product but thats ok becuase they are inexpensive.
