i fitted phase 2 rear lights today when it wasnt snowing, tbh they look a lot better than the phase 1 apart from the enormous gap between boot lid and lights is this normal or anyway to rectify ?

Did they come with the foam seal to stop water getting into the boot?

yup the foam seal is there on back of the lights, i even slackened them off thinking i had over tightened them but made no difference to how the boot lid sits ?

Well, simple solution... Loose the nut that keeps light in place... If it's too tight it leaves gap, if it's too loose, light will move.

Try adjusting the tailgate latch. You might be able to get the tailgate sitting more flush, reducing the panel gap.

Bend the tailgate,
OR add another set of seals on the back to take the slack,
OR fit Ph1 set as the geniuses at Peugeot originaly intended.
