Taillight gasket material - Festiva

[Pgh5spd]

Anyone have any idea where I might find the black rubber foam material the taillight gaskets are made of? All spares from my parts cars are junk, but it looks like it would be easy to make one with a sheet of the right material. Is it available anywhere? Or are there alternate materials that work just as well? I suppose I could run a bead of silicone around it, but I figure it might be hard to get the taillamp off later if I need to.

F3BZ, thanx! That works for me. (Even tho, DJ, that's also a great solution!) Are you by any chance in Oakland, Downtown or East Suburbs? I'll PM you...

Taillight gasket

I bought a sheet of that foam rubber sheet that kids use to make stuff at a Fabric/Craft store. It comes in all kinds of different colors and is about 3/16 of an inch thick. Use the old one for a pattern. Works great.
