Ok, so I bought some new taillights and need to seal them up again. I've looked around and haven't been able to find a real definite answer. Any suggestions or links would be greatly appreciated!

I assume you mean seal them to the body. If so, Butyl rubber is the best to use.

Try this:

You may want to fold it over to double the thickness, but this is the stuff supplied with the 99 Jspecs...

That auction says tape is "non-trimmable." What exactly does this mean?
