tail light gaskets on BRAT

[2manetoys]

What is the best replacement for the gaskets on the tail lights of my 85 Brat?

 

The old one is dry rotted of course. Is there a place that I can get a new gasket? I bought the only tail lights on the only Gen 2 BRATs that I've found.

I know this subject has come up once before (If not more) there is a company that makes new gaskets from what I remember - but the name slips my mind.

 

But couldn't you just use some Black RTV around the entire backing?

about 2 years ago i bought them new, from Jason on our best parts source. i bet they are still available, my gasket was like 8 bucks only.

-the loyale, why outsource it, they are still available remember they made BRAT (Brumby to them) til 1993 in AUS and parts are readily available. I also bought a new left tailight lens (lens only) for $12.50 usd 2 years also, when people on ebay and here try to sell for more. go call jason he will get u you parts.

I'll gladly buy a new gasket if I can find one since I'm restoring (kind of) and not wheeling the Brat, but being a relative rookie here I've got 3 questions:

 

Who is Jason (I assume he has a username on here)?

What is our best parts source? A website or dealership?

Do you have the # or know where I can find it?
