This rubber strip serves as a watertight seal between the Beehive taillight body and the license plate illumination lens. It prevents water, dirt, and moisture from entering the electrical connections, ensuring your lighting system remains protected and functional.
This MCS rubber strip is designed for 1939-1946 Harley-Davidson motorcycles equipped with Beehive taillights. Check your bike's year and taillight model before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Rubber seals typically last many years, but should be inspected regularly for cracks, hardening, or deformation. If you notice water inside your taillight housing or deterioration of the seal, replacement is recommended. Most enthusiasts replace it during major restorations or every 10-15 years depending on weather exposure.
This is an OEM-equivalent replacement part made by MCS. It meets original specifications and dimensions (reference numbers 68127-42 and 5065-42) but is manufactured as a quality replacement. It offers the same performance and reliability as original parts.
Installation requires removing the taillight assembly and carefully removing the old seal from the junction between the Beehive taillight body and the license plate lens. Clean the surfaces thoroughly, then position the new rubber strip and press it firmly into place. Reassemble your taillight and test that it creates a proper seal.
No, this seal is specifically designed for Beehive taillights on 1939-1946 Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Using it on other taillight models may result in poor fit and inadequate sealing. Always verify compatibility with your specific taillight design.
If this rubber seal fails or deteriorates, water and moisture can enter the taillight housing, potentially causing corrosion of electrical contacts, bulb socket degradation, or complete lighting system failure. This is why maintaining a good seal is crucial for the longevity of your classic motorcycle's electrical system.
Yes, the rubber material is designed to withstand various weather conditions including rain, snow, and UV exposure. However, regular inspection is recommended, especially after harsh winters, to ensure the seal remains effective and hasn't become hardened or cracked.
