Default Rocker cover gaskets
Just rang Subaru and they quoted £150 + vat !! For both sides . This seams a tad steep ? Can't I just seal my old ones up ?

Am I missing something? I paid around £7 for a drivers side rocker gasket on my Blob (which I never needed after all)

I just bought a gasket on it`s own. Maybe that`s the difference. Still seems a bit steep though.
