    WTB. Windshield gaskets and turn signal.

    Looking for front and rear windshield gaskets in very good condition for a 85 745i.

    Also looking for a working turn signal with OBC control. It’s a euro model without airbag and has this connecting plug:

    I can't find the spare windshield gasket I thought I had. I have one coming out of the 85 745 that is usable but it has some nicks in it here and there from previous windshield replacements. I do not think it would be good enough for your car. The turn signal w/ OBC control from the 85 745i I have.

    Messaged you and thanks. Not in a hurry on the gasket as it will be a few weeks before they get to that so if you run across it keep me posted.

    ECS tuning has the front windshield gasket in stock

    It's pricey but I'd buy one while you can still get it. Looks like only the rear is NLA

    I went ahead an purchased the front gasket now I really need to find a rear. I got all the door gaskets while I was at it.

    Stil trying to locate a rear windshield gasket. Any ideas if I can’t find one? This has been pretty elusive.

    LOL. I am working on that piece. It’s taking way longer than I thought on the space. Knowing you have.a gasket in an emergency is helpful. In the meantime I will keep searching. There are several options for custom made but I need a gasket to measure, photo and send as an example.

    NO idea the cost but a couple I found are Steele Rubber Products and Mantaline. I think Trulock was another. NO idea the cost but they carry several types of gaskets for static windows. We’ll see how that goes.

    You would think there has to be a way to make up a gasket. How do all these chopped vehicles and older restorations that need a gasket come up with them? Anyway the search continues.
