you should be ok,
mine leaked like a bugger,so i replaced it, plenty of clear silicone on both parts when installing, and wipe off the excess with white spirit and a cloth, quite a simple job. i shall have to re-do mine this year ( not because it leaks ) as i need to replace my pop top roof lining.

Wouldnt use clear silicone as it will not seal for long, I have just removed mine, the silicone had sort of stuck to the pop roof but not to the light itself.
Used Seamseal CV which is a non drying bedding sealant, its what the caravan builders use, couple of quid a cartridge, get mine from O 'learies

The makers are
Hodgson sealants Ltd
Belprin way
Beverley
east yorks hu17 0ln
01482 868321

they do another that is better than sikaflex at a fraction of the cost.
