Indicator light sealing/backing gasket/sponge
Does anybody sell these ?
The one that goes behind the lens is readily available.
But not this one, which is located betwwen the body and fitting.
Or should I just make my own ?

They are the originals, but I believe they are readily available, also swapped a 730d bootlid last year and found the same type in there.new to this wrote: ↑Mon Jun 25, 2018 6:46 pm Mahesh

Re: Indicator light sealing/backing gasket/sponge
I've found the one between lens and fitting, but not the one that goes behind the light fitting to the body, can you post a link, I'm curious to see where on the site.new to this wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 9:12 pmMahesh
Just looked on Rimmers site they sell the gasket,
Dave
If it's a sponge one, my xps laminate flooring backing polystyrene gasket is probably superior, and watertight

Many thanks Dave, but I have since found my earlier lights, i now need a rubber boot for the back.
I know they are wrong for a later car, but do prefer the look.
