Do you have any pics? I have digitalis in the front and rear of my car.

So before they used to extend all the way out to the screw holes. Now they just kinda float. The rear sucks too because it is so far off center it makes it hard to move them around. And finally when I put the gasket on it blocks a whole row of leds.

Can you wrap the gasket around it? Would that hold it?

Waiting to hear back from digitails after a call and an email but I may mount them to the lens. Anyone think this would be an issue?

That looks good, almost as if it was designed for that exact placement in the installation. Hopefully the light looks good through the lens when the LED’s are touching it.

Please post the results.

You could put clear silicone on the sides and top and bottom to hold it in on the back side. I'm not talking about a lot, but like a dab in 4 spots.

They sell little 1/4" or a little thinner bumpers for cabinet doors, I think they have them in clear too. Hardware stores or even Walmart had the. you could stick them to the front of the board and place the board in the lens. Maybe a tiny piece of double stick tape or something else to hold the gasket where you need it on the housing.

Hope all is well with you Wayne!
