I have an ih 454 that I am replacing the headlights in. The lights are held by a square rubber mounting bushing. I have purchased new bushings and I can"t seem to insert the lights into this mold. does anyone have any suggestions on how to accomplish this? I have tried lubricating with soap, but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Put the rubber on the light first. THen wrap a 1/16" thick cord or string around the groove in the gasket(2times around, but sticking out 10" or so). Put the light/gasket in the hole, with soap as before) and push so one edge near the string end is socketed on the metal correctly. Pull on the string from the back to cause the gasket lip to curl in while pushing in, and sideways to assist the rolling action. Presto. JimN
