Hi guys.

I bought new tail lights for my 2001 VW New Beetle. They look good and work just fine, but they did not come with any gaskets to prevent water from getting into the car.

I have not found what I need in my search of the internet. Most of the products specifically for VW are ridiculously expensive and up to now I have only seen gaskets for classic VW's.

There must be a way of making a gasket for the tail lights with some generic rubber product or something used in another application, but I have not found it yet.

Anyone know of inexpensive product that may be used to seal my tail lights?

Bill

Those should not leak into the cabin.
