I've posted a pic this time
9 months later at the recent MOT test it failed on being severely corroded on both sides at the back of the wheel arch. the MOT guy said it was probably channelled water from the sunroof it had collected there and then caused rusty holes.
Do you think its because i didn't fit the tail lights correctly, and water has got in and been unable to escape? I do!
I've now had the welding done and don't want this to happen again.
What's that black gooey stuff that holds them on and makes the seal? at the time of original fitting i didn't think about this at all but i reckon this is what is needed to make a good seal.
Any advice much appreciated
