Default What should I use?

I am going to reinstall the interior very shortly, and does anyone know what a good caulk is that I can use to seal it...There was some sort of clear silicone on their when I took it off...Is that something that is done regularly, or is it another signature bubba trait...Anyone??

Thanks

It was used all over, but it was in almost ever area where the interior pieces touched the car...at the Rear quarter panels, the t-top sections and the side moldings...all along those parts...Thanks for any input.

i will have to check mine. i personally am scraping all the crud out of the interior, and doing 3 layers of sound deadener, plus factory insulation, and carpet. mine should be sealed up pretty good. :cheers:

Yep, sounds like you'll have it pretty much submarine proof :-)

Thanks for the input, let me know if your going to seal any part of that interior and if so, what are you using...Thank you
