The original rubber gaskets fell out in pieces when I took them apart. My dilemma is I don't know how the gaskets were installed. I think the gasket goes along the edge of the housing, but how does the light reflector go in relation to the gasket - under the gasket or on top of it? I would have thought that the reflector went on first, then the gasket, then the lens. Does this sound right? Thanks for your ideas. [Reply]   [No Email]

Now we are talking about or9ginal lites with the gasket that has an edge for fitting in the grouve around the reflector with the smooth side facing the lens.   [Reply]  [No Email]

The reflector needs to be in place first, firmly planted on top of the brass grounding strip or the light will not work well. After you get it all in place, put the outer ring on and tighten it down. It can be a little fussy, but it works well. I have done many of them this way.   [Reply]  [No Email]

You cannot install the lens first then the gasket. Have you ever installed a gasket as we would like to know how you got it all together.   [Reply]  [No Email]

At any rate you may find the gaskets hard to install as they aren't exact replacements for the IH gaskets. Eventually they will go on. I think I needed another hand.   [Reply]  [No Email]
