Use turn signal O ring seal or not
Do you folks replace those little O ring seals on your turn signal lenses when the fall apart? Do they really do any good?

Plastic to plastic or plastic to metal w/o an O ring could cause an avenue for leaks. I would think.

Always reassemble things with all the parts that were removed during disassembly.

The only o-rings on my signal lenses are there because of the bezels that I bought to go on them and they are needed to hold the lens out so the bezel attaches properly. They came in the bezel kit but are available separately. I don't know if these are the ones that you are talking about or not, but I'd replace them.

Thanks dawg, the O rings didn't seam to seal up anything that well. They must be there to let the trim rings slide in behind the lense.
