Default Tail light Assembly

I'm replacing a tail light assembly and was wondering if there is a gasket or sealant to seal it to the tub? I got most of the past crud off and would like to put it back on right. Thanks for the help.

Use 3M Windo-Weld Ribbon Sealer, Round Bead 3/8" X 15', Part No. 051135 08612. Clean off all the old sealer around the light and area on car so the new sealer will adhere properly with no water leaks. I put a strip around the light and used a heat gun to soften the sealer some and pressed it into place and installed all the nuts. I went back and trimmed the excess sealer. I have not had any water leaks around both rear lights. Cost at Auto Zone was $18.49 and have a lot left over.

Cheers,
Larry
