Question '62-'63 Backup light lens gasket source

Hi, all...

In the process of changing a burned out bulb, I discovered that while my backup light lenses may be a little dirty (and NOS ones are available on eBay), the gaskets are dirty and hard as a rock (no surprise).

It seems that there are several sources for parking light lens gaskets, and OPGI even has the license plate light lens gasket of the same material (white foam), however, nobody seems to have the silly round ones with the screw hole loops for the '62 and '63.

The factory part number is apparently 5953211, and should fit all full size models for both years.

I have solid ones for making templates, too, if anyone happens to have a source for that 1/8" - 1/4" white foam (assuming it can be cut with normal tools vs having to be stamped).

TIA
