Does anyone know where to get the original grey/silvery coloured door weather seals. The only ones I can find are black.

This was subject of a long discussion in another thread. The silver pinch mound was originally separate to the rubber. Both are hard to find. Even if you find the pinch mound the rubber is NLA. Some are rubbers close to correct but too thick.

Do people want the blue pinchweld? Ill need new seals and honestly couldn't be bothered stuffing about for seals. Rather do the one piece stuff.

If I'm carrying on like a pork-chop, I'm having a great time.

If I go very quiet there's a very good chance I broke something.

phillb is correct I went through this and couldn't come up with anything of the correct size.
Saying that I was very lucky to find two new old stock door seals and rubbers/silver pinch weld in New Zealand.
If the rubber could be remade most pinch weld is in good condition.
I found one size door rubber that was close but it wouldn't allow the door to close nice.
