Honda have automotive sealant. Keep in mind that you could risk fogging up your headlights (thereby risking HID blown out and having to buy two new headlight casing). Corner bulbs are 1157 (x2) for turn sigs and 192 (x2) for front parking light (behind the amber lens). You can buy the Xenon ones after you cleared the amber. Circuit City sells 192 Xenon bulbs here in FL....maybe where you live too. You should black out the chrome only, or risk having lower light output.
