    When I first got my truck I put on an aftermarket LED third brake light and have had nothing but problems with it. Moisture gets into the lens every time it rains. I want to put the stock one back on but you cant buy just the foam gasket (which is all I need) Anyone ever do this or found an aftermarket one? Maybe used some type of weather strip for windows?

    When I had changed my bulbs to LED's, I found that the gasket was cheap. I found it wasn't even a whole piece(round) that went around the whole cover. Once you took the cover off the gasket came with it too. I changed to LED's and put the gasket back on without gluing it. Everything seems to be working fine since I did it 6 months ago. The dealership doesn't sell just the gasket, kind of stupid. I can remember what the cost was but I know that it wasn't cheap.

    Oh you mean the rubber piece in-between the lens. I was talking about the foam piece that goes in-between the truck and the whole light assembly.
