Tail Lights Leaking
« on: June 24, 2011, 22:45:30 »
Wondered where the rust on the trunk floor came from.  Car was painted by previous owner and has new trunk weatherstip.  Got out a spray bottle and then the garden hose.  Surprise - no tail light gaskets!  Are they really $100 each?  There's gotta be a better way.  I've got some 2-part epoxy professional body man filler.  Maybe I'll make my own gasket.  Anyone have a good solution?

I would try the usual suspects, Buds Benz, Millers or K&K - Buds had repro seals at $30. Millers were 65 and 45 depending on which 113 you have.
