What is the length of each strip? Can they be ordered longer? Might want to use them to seal up the rock issue in the rear wheel well /rocker arm area.
Cheers

Great idea but fortunately or unfortunately "MY VETTE DOESN'T GET WET"!!! My vette isn't my daily driver and living in Southern California where it's mostly always sunny, I don't have to drive my vette when it rains. Then I use a damp micro-fiber cloth with NXT spray wax when I put it away for the night. But if I did get it wet I would buy the seals. With the amount of dust that collects on the tail of the vette after a short drive and with the water drip it could become a mess. Then some area's have hard water and it would eventually make a permanent stain or color variance. GREAT IDEA!!!!!

They work!
Arrived yesterday, put on last night. Look fine and they WORK, No more drip!!! Once you dry out the light well, it stays dry. Another DOH!, why didn't I think of this.
Money well spent with minimal corvette tax, IMHO.

Sounds like a great idea - I may have to get a set.

But I do know you will be very satisfied with the Seals. Jim

The C6 tail lights don't hold the water as bad as the C5 did. After the leaf blower is used I do not have any water coming out. With the C5 even after using the leaf blower I would still get water. For those of you that don't use a leaf blower or compressed air, this product will most likely be what you want.
