If you still need seals, please email me using the link in my profile on the left and I will reply.


Seals are still available if required.


Nice to hear from you Jeremy, good to see you are still about.

best regards from the Southampton Massive

If you remove the lights and seals, you'll see where they've split, simply reglue together for now and fit the left seal to the right light and vice versa

This is next on my to do list, how hard is it to remove the rear light clusters to change the seals?

Peel back the inner lining, remove 3 nuts and pull off the lights. While you have them off, clean the body work. The original seals may have split, simply glue them back together and keep them for spares 😎

Tried messaging Jezzer re these but got no reply so bought a cheap pair off eBay. One fitted, waiting for a replacement light cluster before attacking the other side.
Very easy to do as as described above, less so if a previous owner has used some form of industrial strength plastic to glue it to the bodywork : duh:

Luckily mine were easy to get off, once i found my 8mm spanner, I spent more time hunting down the spanner, than the time it took to change both seals, I purchased an set off ebay, quality looked to be good, and i scrapped off and cleaned any sealant from the bodywork and put on new sealant as well as new seals, so that the light clusters are watertight,
I did find one strange thing though, an old bulb left inside the Offside lens cluster, i checked and there was no bulbs missing .

On mine a prevoius owner has glued the offside light to the body with a very strong adhesive so it wont come off without a fight. I have a second hand unit now but as it does not appear to be leaking at present, I'll let sleeping dogs lie!
