If you find a fix for that, please post it. I'm pretty sure I'll be going through the same thing soon. Good Luck

Jeez, that seems a little spendy. I think I'll try some silicone sealant and a razor first. That is If I can find a decent pass side tail light to work with.

silicone is what i was going to try..Def have to give it a good cleaning first to remove the old cracked pieces..Im in the process of getting some body work fixed so I am going to replace all the weather stripping also..Yes alot of money if i can just avoid that it would be great

Wish I would have known earlier, I just sold a complete rear tail light set for $50, and the seals were in great shape.
