Hi Bill,
At NAPA and probably every other FLAPS the will sell some strips of black
sealant.? The stuff I used came in a box with different layers separated with
wax paper.? I took some of this stuff and encapsulated the end of the nut and
bolt to keep the road mess off from it.
YMMV.

Subject: [TR] TR6 Trapazoidal Front Side Lamps
I am thinking about trying to seal up the treads on the mounting studs
for the front side lamps for early '74 TR6 so that next time I remove them
they don't snap off from being rusty. I plan to us a SS nyloc nut and some
anti-seize. There are still a lot of threads exposed in the wheel well. How do
you prevent them from rusting? Paint? Undercoat? grease & some sort of tape or
sleeve?
TIA,
Bill in Tehachapi
