Headlight Gasket, Don't want to stay in place. Options

[skiark1]

Hello, I have a 95 Celica and I'm having trouble keeping the headlight gaskets in place. Has anyone else had this trouble, and if so how did you fix the problem?

I have the same problem. There are a few metal clips that hold the gasket to the headlight structure. I'm missing a few thats why mine is loose. Pop the hood and give it a look. Might be the same thing.

i had this.. the whole gasket was coming off both my outer lights.. there are clips all around the light to hold the gasket on. To do it fully it's a bumper off job.. should take you 2 hrs tops... (or just pay somoene to do it for you!)

Thanks, for the info, I think all my metal clips are gone. I guess I need to make a trip to the dealer, or can you get them at a Auto parts store?

Best bet for some cheap ones is Junk Yard.

Cheap fix: Glue. Mine were having the same problem, so I cured it with a little superglue. IF you don't want to spend the money to fix it right, glue is a lot cheaper and less time consuming.

i'm with scooby doo cruiser i have a kit and after i got it put on the light gasket would always come off so i glued it with duper glue and have never had a problem. i know it sounds ghetto but you can't see it and it works great
