3rd light gasket fix

[Joebowman61]

Hey y'all. New guy here. Any success with the 3rd light gasket fix? Just cleaned up all the dried up gasket from the back seat. I'm thinking door insulation. Thoughts?

I recommend to replace the whole light with new rubber. search the forum for the diy parts and guidance.

There's been a couple discussions about this, most recently today on the What did you do with your DH Today thread. One person used black gorilla tape and others have used 3M adhesive strip, including me. I'll try to take a pic tomorrow am.

After looking at this for the first time in at least a few months, I could've trimmed the right and left edges better and I'll probably go back and clean it up, but the straight flat area is holding up fine. There's plenty of room so if you choose to stick something up there, you won't have to extend past the black strip on the rear window and you will not see anything when looking at the rear window from the outside.

Thx for the pick. It appears you simply placed the strip right OVER the gap vs INSIDE the gap, correct?
