Fill the sumbitches up. I have a rather embarrassing mass of window
weld in my car and it works great, in the places I can use it. Only one
word of caution. Make sure they're completely dry before pressing them
in...like 48 hours dry. Had a problem once where it was still runny
(think eggs) inside and it squirted out a little. So either that or
fill them after pressing and don't drive the car for a day or so.
-Cheers!
