Aaaahhh! Sorry to say this, but these lights are s#!t - is there by chance some white calking that holds the plastic in place - better not get them too wet! I sold a few of these lights and I got every set back - hopefully yours are much better quality that the batch that I got back. I only sell Bosch and Hella, you pay more, but you get what you pay for too!
