window seals for a type3 ?


hey does anyone know where i can get some window seals for my type 3?
am having real trouble trying to get a hold of any and meanwhile my speakers are dripping water and the bottom of my doors are getting cancer.
does anyone know if i can just get some kombi ones and cut them to size?
thanks, thorun

Type 3 outer window scrappers are not available anywhere

Vintage in Sydney has Kombi ones that you have to cut down to size and rivet onto the metal section.

This is the only option. Better off if you have another set of scrappers to play around with.

Are they available OS either US or England.
Since getting my Notch I'm also getting frustrated with the lack of type 3 stuff.

There are ways around the lack of stuff for type 3's.

Like dave said....

As for the bottom of the doors...

there should be drainage and a quick clean will get the water out.

NO nothing available other wise it would be here in Aussie.

Just like type 3 1/4 vent rubbers not available.

This is due to demand. If theres no market, then no one in the UK or USA wants to spend the money to make the dies n molds to do the parts.
