    The roof on my 379 leaks water where my horns are mounted. The paints peeling on the roof. I think I may take it to a body shop and have the horns removed and have the holes filled and then repainted. I had the truck at Peterbilt in Knoxville getting some repairs. They put silicon in where the horn airlines go through the roof. It didn't fix the problem. I could try again myself.
    I talked to the Knoxville Peterbilt body shop about horn removal and paint.
    They wanted $5000. That would have included a few more roof lights and relocating an airhorn.
    I didn't go for that deal.

    Instead of silicone, find a tube of M-1, it's an industrial adhesive sealant. Stuff will setup under water and is amazing.

    Same colour as my company trucks. I'm in love.

    That's an instant follow from me.
