Corner signal gap

I just installed euro headlights, there is a small gap on the top between the corner and the body, the rubber sealant does not seal the edges like it use to when I had the stock headlights. What do people here recommend using? Is there black rubber stuff in a tube like tooth paste I can put to put in to seal the openings? I'm in Toronto, does someone know a product at cdn tires or any online place would be okay.

thanks

Are you sure that the corner lights are pushed in all the way? Make sure you hear the "click" otherwise you risk having the corner light fly off the car like it happened to me. It looked like it was in there properly, but it wasn't and flew off the car after a few months while driving on the highway. The previous owner of my car had clear coorner lights and replaced them for amber when he sold it to me and didn't put them in all the way.

yea, i know about the click, and its clicked. it has something to do with the headlights not fitting just right, so its off on the top.
