Rear light welts - 73 Chally

[Juan Veldez]

Are the thin black "welts" adhered to the rear lights with some type of sealant? If so, what type? My lights have something that is black and is flaking off in that area, but don't know if someone in the past tried to seal them up better or if it was factory installed?

The tail lights have foam gaskets also. Do you have the gaskets?

Yep, the thick white gaskets are installed along with the thin black welts. Got the FULL set from Detroit Muscle. Really great service and products.
