I see that AA has a front turn signal boot to seal the wire connection in the wheel well. Does anyone do anything different?

AA turn signal boot is #10

I was just adding up the $ to get mine back to snuff. Wow they add up fast. Wire boot $28, lens seal $12, side marker seal $8, maybe new lenses, both front and side. I will probably wait on the lenses. Plus there is a boot for the side marker that appears to be NLA.

What do the masses do to keep the wires dry?

I bought some new old stock out of Germany and the rubber was glossy. Looked like from an aluminum tooling mold.

Is the material rubber or silicone. If silicone it's not OEM.

I don't think it's silicone. I wish it was, since that would probably hold up better since it is different anyhow.

There is glossy and there is glossy like in the pic above which is too glossy. It feels different and no part numbers. not fooled by the porsche bag. I think the originals were like 35 each. I want my $20 back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
