    I had the same problem with my VP calais, depending on how bad the rubber is you could get some rubber care spray and some clear silicone and put it all pack together. Wont leak then

    I had this issue with the vn, bloody rust and a hole in the spare wheel well now. I ordered a new set of tail light covers through this bunch, i couldn't find the seals by themselves although i must admit i couldn't have been fudged going to all that trouble.

    i've bought the aftermarket lights off ebay (stock looking ones though)

    left hand one leaked when i got it. sent it back to be replaced. got the replacement, that leaked too. i've also got a second hand pair of aftermarket lights sitting in the garage (same brand, came with a garnish i bought), and the owner has already tried to fix that as it's been leaking. ONLY happens to the left hand light, weird right? it's actually the light itself that leaks, not the seal. one day i'll separate the lens from the light body and seal it up properly. i wouldn't recommend them though - may as well just fix your current lights

    Well I would try firstly Holden (obviously) if you asked on here without asking holden you need a good slapping around . If you fail at Holden then go ask someone that makes the complete rubber kits

    Holden def dont have them.

    Also if your looking for brand new lights, you'll only be able to get exec lights, and i got the last set from a rare spares stockist in SA. Not sure if other states will have any left.

    I start to panic when parts get short in supply.

    I agree with the left hand side light always the one that leaks.. I had three goe's at mine - filled it with seam-sealer, windscreen sealant, silastic and Sikaflex. Would've been cheaper to buy some tampons.. yes, it still leaks lol
