NEVER reseal with oem sealant. get a flathead and scoop out the old sealant as much as possible. and than apply new glue in the trench of the headlight where old sealant used to be

one more important thing to note, is to make sure the housing is FULLY dried. let it dry for at least overnight. If you don't let it dry enough and use them, the heat from the light will oxidize the wet paint and bake the paint oxidization on to the lens of the headlights...
