Tailgate/hatch gaskets

Turns out I don't have an exhaust leak like I thought. Fumes are coming in through my tailgate/hatch.

So, does anyone know where I can get the gaskets from? Are there universal gaskets I can get for cheap? Are there any DIY things to do? Thanks!

    Take this approach,http://crxcommunity.com/viewtopic.php?t=9263 and make your own.

    doitdub,thanks for the suggestion. I think I will need to do my taillights as well.

    So, I ended up buying window/door weatherstripping (for homes) from Walmart. Cleaned up the tailgate where the OENM gasket makes contact. Attached the weatherstripping and then went to close the tailgate but had a hard time due to the added thickness of the new weatherstripping. Took some muscle to get it lock.

    Unfortunately, it didn't solve my exhaust leak issues. Is it so strong because I'm running a hollowed cat? Or do I need to redo all the door gaskets too?

    Do you have a rust hole you dont know about?

    I say this because one of my old cars had a rust hole behind the rear bumper and when i was stuck in traffic the exhaust fumes came through it
