    Default Rubber for car restoration

    Hi all
    I thought this would interest most who are looking for rubber like doors, grommets, window seals flats etc .. Different profiles.. I've found a few companies but prices are xxxxey.

    Hi Randal,
    Where's the link or company name?? I used to get most of my rubber sealing and motor body building stuff from Universal Engineers Supplies.

    Wonder what it would take to make your own rubber mouldings ?

    While back I were speaking to a chap that deals in Hillman bits and he mentioned that he does up some designs on the computer, shoots them off to China, and the special order shaped silicon seals turn up. I think he did door and window seals.
