    Best place to buy rubber seals?

    I have to replace the rubber seals and grommets for the windows and body of my '72 project. Can anybody suggest a good place to go to buy these? Does someone sell a complete seal kit for an early 911?

    Check out Sierramadrecollection.com.

    Many of the seals are still made by the factory. Be careful if you go with repro seals. I have not had a good experience with many of them.

    I have noticed that the aftermarket windshield and rear window seals do not seem to hold the aluminum trim properly in the corners. Use factory seals there.

    This is VERY important since the trim is what is 90% responsible for holding the window in. W/O it adios f&R windows.

    Does Pelican sell repro or OE seals. I recently installed one for the rear window and some recent threads on this subject got me to thinking that this better not be a crappy repro. I do not want to redo this window since it was a total bear to install.
