gbhrps Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Gentlemen, A couple of very rainy days this week and I spied a rain trail going down the inside of the rear window ofthe tailgate. So I pulled the inside top moldings of the tailgate off to trace the water entry point and discover that the high mounted rearbrake light assembly is missing a mounting nut at one end. Once I have it removed from the tailgate I discover that its gasket has deteriorated as well. So I cleaned off the old gasket material, replaceit with automotive body dum dum/plumber's putty/ a bead of silicone and reinstall the brake light with another 8mm nut and problem solved.Should you find a similar problem yourself, be sure to use some form of sealant around the two threaded bolt assemblies that are molded into thebrake light assembly before you mount it again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
