Thats fine for the painted bits on the inside but where its bonded I'd use a proper PU primer.  Mine is called winbond but I'm sure there's plenty of other options.

 

ETA:

I looked on amazon after the above post, loads there.

I wouldn't use tiger seal if I was you as it's messy and there's been lenses that have fallen off from it.

Tiger seal fail? Golly that must be rare, on the few occasions I've used it, it stuck like billio.

Last time I sealed my lights I just used a generic black sealant and they're still going strong today. Need to pull them off now though new lenses to fit :D

Eliseparts sell this sticky stiff which is is like a thick electrical tape and thats what haggi used with great results. After having 2 rear lights come apart using tigerseal im going to try this.. Plus.. Its not nasty and doesnt make a mess.

To get Tiger Seal/Sikaflex/ect. to really stick you should use a primer/activator first.
