Those are not available for the 2018+ models

Oink! I hate when that happens! It took almost 2 years before aftermarket makers were able to offer them for the 2015-17 model years, and then they go and change them again.

I do have this tube of windshield glass sealant. It's perfectly clear, and I wonder if something like that could be used to at least keep the water out? I have no idea how that might (or might not) affect the light dispersion.

Well that sucks and not cool at all.
Perhaps you should call Morimoto directly and ask them if this is true.
It never hurts to ask.

What is it called? I might get that as well. It should not bother my light disperation since the crack is on the very bottom.

That is what I got also.

I just recived an email from one of their members stating that they dont sell a replacement lens but will work with me to get me a single headlight for a discounted price. I have asked what that price might be... More to come..

Mine is an xlt special order. I wanted some extras that I wasnt able to get off the lot. For a Lariat which has an option to add the LED’s would have been 7k more. Now, I did not pay sticker price but still Ford should make LED headlights availabile for all models.

The stuff I used was Permatex "Auto Glass Sealer" It also had "DWS-37" printed on the tube. I've used it around the edges of windshields and other windows where there was a crack in the gasket.
