Take the head light back out of your car. then take the gray cover off the back of it. stick a hair dryer in there for about an hour so it gets really hot and to be sure you get it all out. then use a sealant and go around the outside of the headlight. also make sure that the little L shaped elbows are still on, those are drain plugs.
