I have a guide spot light on my 52 pickup. Went to replace the bulb, and the gasket around the lens disintegrated . Does anyone have a source for this gasket/seal, or what to use in its place? Thanks..Tommy

No experience with the spot light but I had an old siren/red light combo that the cork gasket had failed. I found that, in that instance, the rubber screen window spline fit the channel and sealed OK. You can buy different sizes of spline. It may or may not work for a spot light.

Thanks Tiny..I will investigate that.

If you google "Guide spotlight lens gasket" quite a few choices appear.

Well, I'll be..I googled the heck out of guide spotlight parts, and the gasket never showed up. Thanks for that info.
