Hi all. Is it possible to purchase a better set of rear lights rubber gaskets than are being sold in the general market at the moment. I fitted brand new Minispares offerings about a year ago and already they are badly cracked. I learnt too late that if the original rubbers are okay, re-use them. Any ideas?

 

Daz.

Depending on if you want it to look 100% original, you could make your own. You could even just use strip caulk.

I installed a set of those from Minispares about a year ago. I sprayed them with Armorall before installing them. They still look good. We shouldn't have to do that but it seems as though it helped.

Getting good quality rubber parts has become a problem for almost all classic cars.
