That is a great trick!  I will use it.  For what it is worth, I have 1 set of good tail light lenses on my car, and 3 sets in various states of cracked or broken, that I will probably fix up, just for good measure.  Now, I can make new gaskets too.  I had been trying to think of what I should use.  That reminds me, should the gap go at the top or the bottom of the tail light lense, or is it supposed to be sealed off with a gasket?
