The sealants that come in a roll, as sold at the RV places are thick enough to seal any differences between the light and the structure. The plastic lens should have some sort of seal between it and the lamp fixture. If it can be replaced , using the same RV sealant , with some trimming will work. The joy of the RV stuff is it is not glue (5200) and not perminant , so stuff can be removed and re bedded as required. FF |

where exactly is the water dripping from inside? Does the coach have to be moving for it to leak. How heavy is the dripping? |

It is leaking where the destination sign is. It is not leaking as much as it did but still does. May have to re-tackle next spring. I will leave a tarp over top for now. |

Windshield may be leaking, sometimes it is hard to tell just where the leak is. |

A bit of silicone/caulk/PL might be worth the effort and time.....in the meantime. It comes off, with a bit of mineral spirits, acetone,etc. FWIW RCB |

With some plastic and duct tape, you could isolate different parts to pinpoint the leak area. |
