Tail Light Assembly Question??
Hi Guys
I've done a search and have found plenty of helpful information on tail light re-hab & clean-up. My question is regarding the gaskets/seals. Our host has what appears to be the major lens/housing ass'y. gasket. I cannot find a part number or anything on the gasket shown to the right of the backing plate & above the main assembly seal in the attached photo or the little vertical compartment seals for the individual bulbs. I am absolutely certain one of the board members can steer me in the right direction. All of these seals I have are in a fairly sorry state & need to be replaced. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks in advance. Cheers JB

My "seal" that was around the rear plate on the tail light Assembly was "Dum Dum" not rubber as the lens seals were.

I think the solution for the smaller vertical seals is simply using pieces of split rubber hose. Not sure about the other seal, i have a later model and don't remember seeing something like this.

It is a 1970 model. That may help explain the lack of info on, or availibility of the seals in question. I may have to 'wing' it as you guys suggest. Many Thanks for your input.
