Hey All,

I was attempting to help replace the passenger side parking light on my husbands 2005 Crossfire when I accidently cracked the park next to it. It is now very loose and sadly we still haven't been able to remove the parking light to replace the bulb. The most urgent thing is what can I do for the piece that cracked? Its the up close photo (before the crack, I was quickly shoo'd away so no pic of the crack). My husband is worried that water will now get into the light assembly. Thoughts?

This is the piece that cracked

Whole Assembly

 

That piece is like a large macaroni paste; It is a vent tube so it is open at the bottom. You can go to any auto parts store and get a small tube of JB Weld for plastic repair, use sand paper to gentle clean and rough up the cracked area them cover the crack with the JB Weld. You should be fine. Some people have also trimmed a piece of vinyl floor edging to cover the entire top of the headlight just for looks, but that or a flat piece of silicone laid over the top would help protect it from water.

Use a needle nosed pliers to twist the parking light connection to replace the bulb.

 

I bought some long surgical forceps on Amazon. They are inexpensive and work great.
