Well consensus so far shows DMT to be great in every way! I only wish every other Mopar related parts business followed suit.

He actually does research to get the correct style of materials used for the gaskets instead of generic replacements.
That is very correct. Jim wanted to make his parts just like they were when new. I sent him a few parts with gaskets so he could analyze and make exact copies. He is very sincere and an asset to the hobby.

Thanks guys Just wish there were more hours in a day. Researching and buying the materials is quite a project. The material typically used for the lense to housing I purchase from the company that made it for Mopar back in the day. Took 2 years to find them. I buy in .062, .093, .125 and .150" thicknesses "skived" from a "bun" thats about the size of a 4" thick mattress. The .093" thick masticated rubber with cotton thread splash shield material I have to purchase in (4) 3000lb rolls at a time to meet their minimum purchase to make it that custom thickness. Nothing is "off the rack". I make the gaskets the way I would want them the look, feel and fit if I were opening the package. Every single one of the 1500+ gaskets I make I have reverse engineered and drawn in CAD then test cut and trial fit dozens of times on actual parts. Just glad the effort is appreciated. Actually doing some online research right now looking into actual molded rubber taillight gaskets for the few Mopars that used them 67-69 Barracuda's, 68 Chargers, 70-71 Dusters, 71-72 Demons and 72 Dusters. I see there's one NOS Duster taillight on Ebay with an NOS gasket. Don't see many of those. I'll probably pick it up.

GMP440-Not bashing you in anyway but either you're a new member or haven't been on Moparts for years but Jim is the guy to go to when it comes to getting correct gasket. Thanks Jim
