There a are many different types for sale online, with description lacking in many cases. Need a black, hard and rigid tube application to get this done.

I just redid the headlights and turn/park lights in my 2003 Lexa with black Sikafles 252 from Amazon. Was perfect. I taped headlights in place and let dry 24 hours before driving the coach and aiming my new projector headlights.
Took me 2 tubes for all 4 light fixtures.

Used a linoleum knife, paint scraper, and razor to remove the old lights. Was more straightforward than I expected. It helped to have someone to hold the lights while i went out front to ensure they were fitted perfectly, took some minor adjustments to get all the gaps looking perfect.
It was rubbery while applying but dries hard, harder than silicone but more like hard tire rubber, not rock hard like epoxy. Was able to smooth it with a putty knife. My old sealant that I removed, presumably also Sikaflex, was similar.
