indicator wire under cycle wing...

[Chris__]

What kind of sealant/gloop/'stuff' do I need to use to make sure the repeater wires for the indicators stay where they should on the underside of the cycle wings, and there's no water ingress guys (edit - erk - or gals, of course )?

 

Thanks.

 

Chris.

I used nothing to protect mine when I changed to clear indicators. And even after a year and a half of driving I have not had any problems atall, and I have driven in some very wet weather !

 

Wiring is just stretched accross to the wing stay and secured with a zip tie.

 

Having said that I am sure they will fuse on me the next time they see rain 😬

Same here, nothing but zip ties!

I have mine stretched and cable tied at the top most part of the wing stay. I could have easily used the sealant that the wings are bonded on with, this is just the black windscreen sealant that you can get a small tube of from a motorist shop (probably not Halfrauds though).

Seeing as some type of sealant was on there before, I'll try the windscreen sealant. Cheers guys.
