Where did you get the tail light gasket the foamy rubber part that's flakey?

Or what's the code of the product?

Please let me know asap cause I can't find them anywhere :(

Hah! I just ran into this problem yesterday while driving. I hit my brakes alittle too hard going down on a very steep hill and I hear some water splashing in the back. Shortly, after I got to my destination I looked in my trunk and there was at least 4 litres (around 1 gallon) if not more of water. Thanks to you and that I watched this video a few months ago I knew how to fix it on the spot with the rubber drain plugs.

Today I took my rear seats and trunk carpet out to dry!

Thanks a lot!!!!!!
