tail light weatherstripping

[MNDave]

After reading these boards for a few months I became a Sho fan and bought a 91+ and just now finding out more about its needs.Opened the trunk today and found a puddle of water so I ran a garden hose over the the trunk and it is leaking around the tail light assembly. The driver side lens weather stripping was gone and some sort of RTV was used to make a seal but I dont want that.Anyone know of a way to fab up a gasket? The Ford dealer doesnt carry them of course or the lens for that matter. By the way can anyone recommend a reputable shop around the Minneapolis area as it will need a 60k soon.

Thanks for the reply..maybe will use some silicone or get a replacement lens from the bone yard..Yes it was a well kept Sho and I hope to have good luck with her. I wont be turning a lot of wrenches so any advise on a good local shop would be great. Im bringing her into the Dealer for a assessment and go from there.
