There is a junkyard in Dade City owned by Corki Yager called Sunray Bugs. The phone number is (352) 521-5660. He should have a replacement window.

If not you can go to BFY Obsolete or Wolfsburg West.

Good luck, and how about posting some pics.

Try West Coast Metric.

They have all the seals you'll need for your Oval. Do a search on the internet.

They have a lifetime warranty as long as you keep your receipt.

you will be lucky to find one that matches. You would be better off replacing the set. Call Glenn up at Hilltop, he can hook you up with the panels,seals and rubber. He will work with you on the price usually.
