Sold each

The OE Match Rear Light Base Gasket is a replacement sealing component designed for the rear light assembly on compatible Porsche 356 models.
 
Fits:

• Porsche 356 1950-55  

Fitted between the rear light base and vehicle bodywork, this gasket helps prevent water and dirt entering the assembly while protecting the surrounding paintwork.

What Does It Do?

The gasket creates a protective seal between the rear light mounting base and bodywork, helping prevent moisture ingress, corrosion and unwanted movement.

Why Does It Fail?

Common causes include:

• Rubber hardening with age
• Cracking and deterioration
• Prolonged exposure to weather
• Compression and loss of elasticity
• Damage during rear light removal

When Should It Be Replaced?

Replace the gasket if it becomes cracked, flattened, brittle or no longer provides an effective seal.

Replacement is also recommended when removing or restoring the rear light assembly.

Check the existing rear light design and part number before ordering.

Installation Notes

Clean the mounting surfaces and remove any old gasket material before fitting. Position the new gasket correctly and tighten the rear light fixings evenly to avoid distortion.
