			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><!-- google_ad_section_start -->Hey All,<br />
<br />
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? <br />
