Goodsy.
If you can't get neutral cure silicone from a hardware you will definately get it from a glazing company. Neutral cure silicone is always used (or should be) when butt joining laminated glass.

After doing a bit of research on the net I've found out it affects the O2 sensor in the exhaust. Fumes from the curing silicone when combusted destroy this sensor. Don't know how much of the silicon has to be used to do this though.
