So I got lucky to finally score a clam shell tail light. I got it for the low price of 25$. So now I am looking for the red lense and the gasket. The round gasket that is between door and light. If anyone knows where I can find one please let me know.

Thank you

To my knowledge, they do not make the light base to body gasket for the Suburban, they do make one for the station wagon. The lenses show up on ebay often, there are several now. The tail light ring is harder to find. Do you have a picture of your light?

I think I might have a used lens that you can have for shipping costs, I'll check and let you know.
