Default Repairing Headlight Assembly

Have removed headlight assembly due to condensation on the inside. Spraying it with water found leakage around the cover's silicon gasket which seems to be deformed.
I am having problems finding a source of these gaskets and wonder is any one could suggest anything.

Regards,
Dave

Cleaning then fitting carefully into the grove before putting the cover back on.
Might work, many people are just not very careful working on their stuff

That's a great find. I'm going to try re-install the originals, I've cleaned them using a silicon lubricant are much more supple.
Will be real careful and if I need to go your way in the future and least it can be done without bumper removal.
Good luck on yours.

Regard,

Dave.
