Place For Custom Gaskets And Seals

Hey Zers! I've been going crazy looking for tail light gaskets and finally gave up. Anyway, I came across this website that can custom make any seal or gasket. A little pricey, but you can buy the sheets of rubber or gasket material and make your own. I made my own seals for my t-tops and tail lights for less than $30! Let me know if you have any questions (even though I'm sure most of you already know this info).

I'll take some over the weekend and post them for you. They were pretty easy to make. I just basically used my old seal as a template (and a trusty pair of trimmers, utility knife and rotary cutting tool).
