    Mine pishes in water on the gsi mate, I'd advise using a bead of windscreen sealant too.

    Mine actually leaks between the seal and the glass not the seal and body
    success is only limited by a weak mind

    I soaked my standard one in white spirit overnight which got rid of all the factory sealant and left it like new.
