id try the free solution first as you can always try the dealer option later.

Re: REAR LIGHT SEALS
may have been a good idea to get sum lexus style lights, they come with new seals,
just wish they would make a nice set because the ones available now are real crap, hate that silver shiny effect,

the silicone should do ok, if you sealed yours up today, and i did mine about 3 weeks ago then theres plenty of advance notice if water will start coming back in, but i doubt it will again.
