Tell me when you find some. I had someone tell me to use aftermarket rubber from clarks rubber store and modify it to fit. Can' t buy original ones from what I gather.

good used is all u can hope for.

You should be able to cut down a good quality 67-67 seal and carefully glue it along the join at the bottom.

^, yes, you could also melt the rubber slightly and hold them together in a clamp

62 - 67

Good quality super glue will do a good job as long as the join is cut square and clean.

I thought oval seals do the job, been a while but you might want to sus that out. And use West Coast Metric, best seals available, life time warranty IIRC.

never thougbt of oval seals.They would definatly be worth a look,good tip matty.You realy want to seal between the body of lite and the guard those 50/50 bodys seem to like to rust.

I am not sure if this is any help but may be worth a try

I have a pair of nos seals not for sale. And I'm trying to find some seals to match for another 61 I have.
They are very different from the other models.

I will let you know how I go.

thanks, yeah let me know how you go GASBNR.
Not sure on the oval seals....wouldn't they be too small??
Ive got the old set of seals from the 50/50's but they are pretty cracked and hard now days....but could work as a template for new rubber.
