Hey Joe C I have them and they work as advertised. The ebayer is a Corvette owner and CF member who offers your money back if you are not happy. I'm satisfied with mine and the install was easy.

i bought the ones from the corvette owner and its nice, adn they shipped fast too. just a piece of weather stripping though. Im sure you can go out and buy some weather striping that has a peel back tape so you can stick it to the lamps. Might be cheaper that way

"These seals are made from silicone and will last the life of your car. Not some cheap foam or rubber product that will rot out in a few years."
Correct me if I'm wrong...

My weatherstrip subcontractor (Weatherstrip Specialties, Inc) uses alot of silicone weatherstripping. I ordered a set from the Vette owner on eBay and I am going to talk to my weatherstrip guy and show it to him to see is he can get me some. Stuff like that sells really cheap!!! I will offer it up to all members here if I can find it!!! Stay tuned....

Hi - this topic came up a year ago and I did what was suggested at the time. Go to Lowes or Home Depot and get 1/2 weatherstrip that comes in a role. It's rubber and costs a few dollars. It has a peel off back. Just remove the taillight and wrap the edge and put it back in. Works great - keeps out the water and is almost invisible.
