Default Headligh dis/reassembly

Quick question, when you take the standard headlights apart, it say's that it uses a high temperature melting silicon.
Now when you re assemble do you have to uses a high temp silicon (gasket silicon), or will normal silicon be fine.

Any help appreciated

Cheers

Normal black silicon is fine.

Any of the automotive range of sikaflex should be ok. i think either sikaflex 252, or 227

I actually used black windscreen sealant when I did my old AU2 lights (have since been sold).
