air filter housing seals

[gunkle]

I just started servicing a new to me 2004 1800a and found that the air filter housing is missing both seals. I can't seem to find a place to buy just the seals. They only come with the housing and spending $100 to get them seems a bit overkill. Anyone have a suggestion? is there an alternative? I'm not really fond of the idea of an RTV type gasket maker as it could get messy and be a pain to deal with in the future. I've search this forum for a bunch of terms and came up empty. I'm sure someone else has had this issue but can't seem to find an answer.

If you live in the USA, JustWings - GL1800 Specialty Servcie and Repair can spare a couple of them. I'll even mail them for free. Send me a PM with your address.

Thank you. I sent you a message on Facebook. I saw that response first.

On FB, I've seen no PM. It probably better to send one here. The PM link is at the top right.

Sending PM now. thank you.

Thanks you Sir. I can't believe they aren't available to buy on their own.

I get them because air boxes are often replaced because of stripped screw holes. Before trashing the air box, I always remove the seal. I probably have at least a dozon of them. Sometime we need one when a 5th gen comes in and wants the k&N air filter replace with an OEM filter.

That makes sense. Smart of you to hang on to them.
