Okay, so I have the factory marker lights on my roof. I needed new gaskets, but couldn't find them. So I bought new factory lights (the amber had faded anyway!) I'm still disappointed. The foam gasket compresses very easily and causes the edge of the plastic housing to rub the roof paint. Also, the stock lights in the outer positions (closest to the edge of the roof) have always hung over too far forward, since the gasket is not as compressed there. I have noticed this on my last two OBS trucks. Anyway, since my truck is getting new paint, again, I'd like to keep this from rubbing again. Has anyone upgraded the gaskets to something else? How about different lights? I have actually been thinking about the 02-06 (don't kill me) Chevy lights, but I don't know about the bolt hole locations. I know they use a 3-light cluster in the center, so I would just run 5 of the outside lights, not their center cluster. I'm open to ideas and suggestions.
Thanks,
Jerry

what brand lights are they? my truck didn't have them & the ones i got are exact clone, but made by trucklite. they seem like that are better quality than the factory ones on my dads f350.

Mine are also Truck-Lite. In fact the stock OEM ones are also Truck-Lite.

Just buy some cap tape and double up the foam gasket
