underbody neons, should i put silcone on the ends?

[EliteConcept]

i just installed my street glow (gold series) underbody neons last night, i had some on my old car a couple years ago, and i was wondering if i should use some silcone around the ends of the tubes for added protection against water leaking in, since thats what happened to me last time.

your thoughts are appreicated

thanks

when i had underbodies, i never had problems with leaking, but i supposed a little silicone wouldnt hurt.

Shouldn't need to. The Gold Series tubes are very well built, I haven't heard of anybody having leaking problems. I know I never had any.

def do it. why not. i had underbodies on my ex and now they are broken for a combination of water leaks and ramming my front end into snow banks.

really...that many problems with them on en ex? i plan on putting mine on later this summer...hopefully i will be getting them for my bday. i had them on my contour and my buddy just got them on his '03 dakota 4x4, so i am getting the itch again.
