WTB - NOS oval window rubber seals
Hi all,
I know this may be stretch.... however I'm after a set of NOS oval window rubber seals. If a set cannot be located, would like to purchase separate
rubbers, as long as they are NOS.
Welcome any leads.
Thank you

if you do find NOS rubbers they will be stuffed and perished
all Oval rubbers have been reproduced by several different places
do you just want rubbers that take the original trims ???

yes, however I find West Coast Metric and Wolfsburg West rubbers really don't look right. The side profile and fitment is not as good as the
originals. Really would like to find a supplier making rubbers to original specs.

yes I agree with you
I have used both type and the trick is to push more rubber into the corners when fitting to the glass

Im sure if you contact pacific plastics in qld they can if you supply a sample of an orignal rubber they can make a die and provide all the features
you need to make your car correct in your eyes,all the do is custom rubber extrusion for holding glass you will of course have to then get it
"welded".Nothing is not avaliable for old cars you just have to make lots of calls and make contacts.Don't give up,P.Shope theres no 2pack or
powdercoating on your oval😉
