Rally Dash Gaskets?

[SwissCuda]

Hallo everybody,
i am restoring my rally dash and I am wondering if somebody is selling the brake/turn signal lights gaskets behind the panel (see pictures)
Any idea

thanks

I know BE&A(and possibly others) sells new lenses.  Maybe you can contact Mike and see what he recommends.  Mine looks just like yours.

I have some left over foam from the gasket kit I bought from Detroit Muscle Technologies.  I suppose one could cut a few doughnuts out of that scrap to use.  I guess I don't really know what purpose those gaskets serve.  I was just going to leave it like that.  I thought maybe it had something to do with how the lenses were held in.

Saw this on e-bay and this vendor will sell just the gaskets alone (read ad). Unfortunately he only ships to the US. Maybe another vender (like burbar suggested) will ship gaskets only worldwide. I think they were meant to keep dust from getting in behind because he mentions installation of the lenses with a soldering iron.

I made my own gaskets, but there are two companies that you could ask:
DashWorx:

Detroit Muscle Technologies:

I have ordered parts from both. Haven't seen these gaskets but it wouldn't hurt to ask.

I am sure the gaskets keep dust out.  It was always my understanding that their purpose was to keep light in.  They seal to the tube and force the light to go through the lenses.  This makes the lenses lights brighter.  If you leave the gaskets out the light in the lenses will be dim.
