clearance light source?
Edward Buker:
This may be controversial with some....If I had a choice in all this to get a neat job I might consider using the Lexel to bed the light and seal it to the coach. Lexel is not so easy to work with and get a really neat job. It seems to be less workable very quickly then silicone is. Once sealed with Lexel I would then use the blue tape to set a sealing bead edge line on the coach around the light and then use silicone to do the cosmetic finish and any additional sealing. The trick is to use just enough silicone to flow a thin layer over the tape edge as your finger finishes the leveling job. When you have the application complete pull the tape before the curing really starts. Lexel is the better sealant but I have had much neater results with silicone cosmetically if that is important to you.

See if you can copy down a number off a lamp cover, Bargman or other. Beaver Coach Sales parts dept. may be able to provide guidance:
800.382.2597
But consider replacing them all as Dennis suggests, with LEDs - they are brighter, use less power, last longer, and are sealed well enough to likely have fewer corrosion issues than standard bulbs and fixtures.

I use a little tool I found at Harbour Freight for a couple of bucks. A plastic handle with a rubber end, radius to run along the bead of uncured sealant. Then nothing sticks to the rubber end, at least not permanently. Always looks way better than the wet finger method.
Dennis Crawford:
A little hint here that I learned while working in an RV repair shop. For any caulk job, use windshield washer fluid to we the finger and early clean up of area. Works great.
