I am looking for new seals (between car body and bulb housing) for front indicators .Despite scouring the web I cannot find any and have heard they are no longer available - does anyone know of a retailer who has them in stock?
Thanks

ISP have one - they reckon they can no longer source them. I'll give those others a shot.

NOS is your only option.

ISP or Mario at T3HQ. The later is your best bet as Mario pretty much deals exclusively with NOS type 3 only parts.

I put a WTB on Samba website in the states and was able to secure a set. There is a set listed on there at the moment for a late model Type 3. $55 US shipped. Thats a fair price I think if they are still available. Do a search for rubber seals in the TYPE 3 Parts section of their classifieds and you should see them…email the seller and ask if they are still available. Good Luck

Thanks Vlad and GKW. I did a search and found them in the Samba classifieds and have sent an email. Agreed $55 is a reasonable price.
If no luck I'll try Mario.
Plenty of people flogging the seals for the early model type 3 - not sure why later models are so hard to source.
