I have them and had the same problem. I called Hugh. They are no longer made to keep water out. Do not use the gasket. Simply put them on with the single screw.

My new headlight rings just arrived from Gordons,I transfered the rubber gaskets from the old rings.The problem is that with the gasket on, I can not put the rings on.It seems like the new rings inside diameter is too small.Has any one else purchased these rings or having the same problem?
Or is there a trick to it!!
Thanks Steve
