Third Brake Light Gasket/Seal

What are you guys using when you put a new third brake light on? I'm actually swapping my factory third brake light to a new trunk lid. The gasket/seal stuck onto the old lid, and I can't seem to find a new one. Called local dealer and looked through the interwebz, and I can't find anything. Other than new third brake lights comes with the seals.

I found one seller in Ebay, it they took down the auction due to discrepancies in the listing.

Looks like RTV it is

If I had to do it today, I'd just use 0.125 inch wide 3M VHB tape, it's probably even stronger than the OEM seal.
