I am not sure what you could use off hand. Can you scrap it off with you fingernail and roll it off with pressure as you rub it away with your fingers. Then use some rubbing alcohol? The glue is still kinda soft, right?
My personal choice is the ones that are NOT self sticking, so that when I need to change a bulb later on, this will come apart easily! Thanks for watching, Gene.
Sticky side went on bulb housing, it snugged up well. Siliconed around it also then welded in a cab corner. Never had spots on headliner tho. I addressed any possible leaks and used 3M cavity wax after on rockers, doors, cab corners and rear wells. I'm gonna get the foam out from them and retreat, I put some in water, it floated and didn't really soak up much but even a bit is too much.
Lol I had to use a heat gun n plenty o rubbing to get my seal off. I had weather strip that’s almost exact fit that I ran around with a dab of sealant on the break of the two ends. Pretty sure going to have to do some work on the cab corner / back glass seal though. It’s hotter than a minute 30 microwaved hotdog right now
Good trick: turn on AC to blast w recirculate. Then spray outside back cab with soapy water. You will then find bubbles of said leak. Seal, go again if you’d like God bless.
These trucks also had a issue with the satellite antenna on the roof. Those you can just put some RTV silicon under them. It is a bit of work to lower the headliner on that side. I would think that you would see staining near the passenger grab handle though.
Thank you!!!
Hope it helps. Thanks for stoping by!

Nice gasket. Looks like you have plenty of extra gasket material from the centre knock out piece. Thanks Mark.
You bet. You know me, I saved it for... something that might come up! Lol.
massive upgrade
Mine had not leaked...yet, but I am only at 48,000 kms and truck kept inside a lot. Still, eventually it will leak, so preventative maintenance.
Exactly what I needed for my 2009 leaking high mount brake light. Replacement on RockAuto for the complete assembly $60
Hope it has a good gasket. I guess if it doesn’t, send it back! Otherwise, hope it goes well Robert.
How can I remove that adhesive if it’s stuck around the light? Can I spray it with something before removal? Thanks

Amazon has them, hopefully the thicker one.

Cab corners do rust on these trucks. Hope you stopped the leak if it was leaking!
Cool truck! Might try that some day! Thanks again, SexyTexan!
I bought this gasket also...way thicker then fords gasket...engineers at Ford's need a kick in the ass...works well thanks for the video👍
I like that it is reusable when you end up replacing bulbs. Thanks for sharing your experience, Dave.
So did it turn out after you put it back on? Good seal?
It worked fine! Think this Video is close to 2 years ago. No leaks.
I bought a whole new gasket for my 2011 f150 and it’s still leaking. Not sure where it’s coming from.

@@unclemarksdiyauto any shot I can send you a picture via email of the water and you tell me what you think it could be?
@@Handlehandle33 Sure. My email is in the about section of my channel.
Was there a gap after install ?
Nope. Gasket tool up any space between the truck and the light.
Where did you get the gasket at my 2015 f150 is leaking
Amazon but it is not available for some reason.
It is now!
