Cab light suggestions

I dislike the way the OEM cab lights don't fit snug enough, front to back, to seal.
Any suggestions for non-OBS lights?
And I prefer to not goop silicone around it. I just want it to fit in the stock location.
It appears that the 88-98 Chevy lights have a slight curve to match the roof line.

Supposedly the CP Addict cab lights fit better than any of the Ebay or aftermarket cab lights.

Thanks for the suggestion. I saw a yt vid recently of a guy installing theirs and he said they didn't fit tight either.

They had a picture of them installed vs. Ebay lights and showed the contour of theirs vs. flat of the Ebay lights. Thats the only reason I suggested them.

I bought a set of their headlights and as soon as I pulled them out and saw "Made In China" molded into the plastic I didnt have high hopes. I installed them and could not get my headlights to aim. No matter how much I adjusted them they pointed straight down. I bought new bulbs and went through the PITA of removing the headlights again and installed new bulbs and they were exactly the same. I ended up buying a NOS OEM set off Ebay and they work great.

I found the page on their site, and though the review is quoted there, my browser doesn't render the images.

I also found the yt

, though I'll grant that it's 2+ years old

I considered these before finding all the oem parts on eBay. Not sure how they fit, but guaranteed no leaks. But do agree the middle one has a gap and see foam and the 2 next to it some foam shows. Outer nice tight fit.
