VWISPWEST.com is a reasonable place to start, but they're in the USA, so shipping and import duty and VAT will bump the price up. Some stuff is available within Europe, and VW's own classic parts organisation may have some things - not sure about rubber seals though. Someone on here got some door seals recently from another site - can't remember who though. You may find it from a search on the forum (search menu is found on the top of each page).

http://www.deimosaircooled.com/products ... ndow-seals has some stuff that In2rust has bought. He's in a similar position.

I believe they'd bought the Vewib ones Dave, which are a bit more expensive, I was interested to see what their thoughts were. Pretty sure Marko got some off a chap on ebay, who I believe supplies ISP West?

Yes I got my door ones from Deimos air-cooled as it was a good deal, think they were from Vewib top quality not installed yet.

Recently got the rear tailgate rubber seal and some windscreen and rear screen rubbers in an order from Mario at T3HQ in Germany. They look like ISP products. they are ok. But pretty much all that is available.

Contact Mario as he is very helpful and may have items that you are looking for.

Search for notch1500 as a seller on ebay, it's a chap called Simon apparently who supplies the seals to ISP west, he's the guy who supplied them to Marko. I've got ISP West glass, bonnet, boot and door seals all round and they seem pretty good so far. They take the scrapers too.

that is correct, for window rubbers anyway, not sure if he makes/supplies other seals..

He has some, but is building up the range as things become commercially viable.
