Default New edge headlight weatherstrip

Ok I searched but I have found no real definite answers. I want to replace the rubber seal that is on the outside of the light that meets the fender? What have others used to do this? Maybe windshield molding off something? Ideas?

No actually. For some reason I thought it would only come with a new headlight.

It's been a while since I sold my 99 mustang. I'm trying to picture that seal. If it's attached to the headlight itself, I just looked. It doesn't look like it's available separately. The picture doesn't even show there's one on it.

Just be sure to use rtv sealer or windshield sealer on the seam between the clear lens and headlight body (black plastic) before you stick them on your car. They don't seal them very well and you will end up with water in your Headlights if you don't.

Bingo, so $70 for the lights then $5 for the RTV problem solved.
