Tail Light Gaskets

Anyone know where I can get a set of tail light gaskets for a 83 280zxt 2+2?

Also looking for any seals or gaskets for the rest of the body.

Thanks!

by pulling off the tail lights, then pulling the gasket... That's how I'd do it anyway

I HAVE seen 280zx's in the J yard that have good seals.

I would just make my own out of generic auto door or rear hatch weather stripping.

Go to the parts store and find one that's got a good shape to it for going around corners. I would make it a little oversized so it'll close the gap where you cut it nicely, but it shouldn't be that hard.

Otherwise, Victoria British...

I just made mine out of "camper foam" its an adhesive backed foam tape that goes on top of a truck bed before the camper. I just put two layers on, staggering the gaps and cut the edge with a razor blade.
