Painting the cab and came across a few of the Trucklite amber LED clearance lights that have failing seals. I have been unable to find a model number on these. Anyone have the model number and or source? Thank you!

Truck-lite made the clearance lights but I contacted them and the do not distribute/sell the seals individually you have to purchase the entire assembly to get the seals with you can special order through NAPA for $30-$45 each.
My solution was, I ordered some 1/8" and 1/4" foam rubber with uv qualities from Mcmaster Carr and made a stencil and hand cut them out.

I do a bead of rtv around the light. Let it get a bit tacky before you tighten it down. The seals dont always stop leaks. Especially over the windshield you dont want water dripping down onto the dash.
