Default 05' Heritage Softail indicator light question

Hello:
New here and need a little direction. I bought an 05' Heritage Softail that need some work done. I need to clean the rear blinker light sockets out. In the process of taking the blinker cover off, the rubber gasket fell out in pieces. I am having trouble finding the gasket replacements. Does anyone know where to purchase replacement gaskets? The lights are original to the bike. Thanks.

The lamps you are working on are turn signals, not indicators (the indicators are the small bulbs in the dash).

I wonder if they come with a lens when bought at a dealer, might give them a call. They don`t show up as individual part.

thanks for the information. Some websites have them labeled as indicators for some reason. I’ll give a dealer a shot. Thanks.

James Gaskets sells turn signal lens gaskets - maybe see if they have a listing for you.
