Title: Side marker lights
Post by: sreta on June 08, 2023, 05:09:21 PM
I have two sets of these, only rear lights have gaskets. No trace of the gasket or glue on the fronts. The same case is with every used side marker light that can be seen on the internet, rear lights with gaskets, no gaskets on the fronts. New lights come with gaskets on both front and rear. So, the question is, with or without the gaskets for the front side marker lights ?

I don't think it matters. Original had none up front, only had to keep water out of the trunk. They don't hurt up front, only slightly limits the water on them. They also have rubber plug boots instead of the plastic in the rear.
