    Looking for a correct SWB horn grill seal source

    Hello,
    Anyone knows a source where to buy a correct beige SWB horn grill seal, originally it was white I assume. I only could find grey or black ones.
    I am missing one side.
    Thank you in advance.

    Sorry, the pictures should be 180 degrees turned around.

    Ahhhh the sixties... I envision myself one early Saturday morning wearing plaid shorts, black shoes with white socks smoking a cigarette heading to the hardware store to buy a bag of nails.
    SWB cars are an acquired taste however once acquired theirs no turning back.

    I checked the horn grills which are with the car and both seals are more grey than beige. So maybe the beige one is a later style?

    I would tend to believe the beige was earlier as the grey seal material made it’s way into the LWB cars until 73 and I sure would like to know a source for these with their moulded ends.
