Rear Indicator Housings

Guys, I was cleaning the bike today after yesterdays jaunt into Scotlandshire and I noticed something a bit odd.

The inside of the indicator lenses were a little blackened, whan I took them apart they had water, muck, salt and general crap inside them. On one of the reflectors it has taken a small amount of the silver pait off, but around the edge, not on the reflector so no problem (I've seen another post where this has gone completely).

I gave it a clean, a good blast of air and dried it all out. I was going to run a small bean of silicon around the lens to stop any further ingress, but the recess is so narrow it's not really possible, so I ran a bead of grease around it and put it all back together, wiped the excess off and all tickety boo again.

You might want to take a look before the connectors inside get corroded - only takes a minute with a small philips screwdriver - the one in the toolkit doesn't fit! What use is the toolkit I ask ?????
