E85 rearlight gasket

Post by MikeyH » Sun Mar 03, 2024 6:56 pm

Can anyone tell me the best/cheapest place to buy a rear light gasket for the E85 pre face lift car please. There are lots on the internet and the prices vary wildly. Don't want to pay too much but also don't want to buy a dud. ML Performance seems to br the best price are they okay. Thank you , Mike.
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

I just bought rear light gaskets for post facelift E86. Cost around £12 each.

I've used ML Performance once in the past....I'd be reluctant to use them again.

Many thanks darich £12.30 for mine, and I know it's genuine BMW :thumbsup:

Glad you found it useful.
It's a great database and you can search by part number too.
I've bought rear light gaskets and rear vents from them. Maybe a little slow with delivery but as you say....genuine BMW so a certain reassurance too. :thumbsup:

I’ll have a look there for stuff in future as they seem a good price :thumbsup:
