    Does anyone know if the front turn signal lens seals are still available? Also, the chrome captive screws in the lens? This is for a US application. Apprecaite any info or comments.

    I bought some sheet rubber some years ago and simply cut it to size. don't recall the exact thickness, but bought the stuff at McMaster-Carr for about $5.00. Just made thin stris and cut it to length.

    Hey Uro, pull a lens off the Dino and put a micrometer to that stuff, will ya?

    Thanks for the input. Found a used pair of lenses from which I could reuse the seals.

    Eurospares has them at £46.00 each!!!!! I bought mine from them only a couple of years ago at £15 each.......Greed
    In all honesty though they are a pig to fit and being in white rubber they do show through on darker cars.I did think about painting mine with black tyre paint but eventually got them looking kinda ok.
    Dave probably did the right thing and made his own.

    Graham.

    The entire project cost me about 30 minutes and maybe $10.00

    I actually might have some still in my desk at work, I'll take a peek and post if I do, leftovers will be free to anyone who needs them until I run out.

    I'll also try to find what material I made them from and post that link too.

    I made them for US lenses, European may be different.

    Also, didn't we find that the turn signal lens is the same as the Alfa GTV? If so, then maybe an Alfa part can be had for less.
