windscreen seal with chrome strip


Does anyone know of where you can buy a windscreen seal with the chrome beading around it, the same as back and side window seals? Or has anyone got a good second hand one which they could sell me. Mine is pretty much deteriated and falling apart and leaking alot of water.
thanks

Think its a 68 FB Dave. See post below. Has VVW got any in stock as I might change the one in my 64.

Recently bought one from Wolfsburg Automotive in Vic. Rubber quality seems OK, the fit is not bad. I also noticed ISP West had them back in stock the other day.

Fitting that chrome trim and keeping it in place whilst you fit the windscreen is a bastard of a job - my missus claims it is the last time she'll ever help me put a window in a type 3!

Good luck!

The chrome (aluminium) strip goes in ok if you take care and use a spray soap such as Nifty to lubricate the rubber. Front screen can be put in by yourself with relative ease but better with someone to help.
