Need seals for the doors, trunk and rear hatch for Oppenhiem my '71 Square. Money isnt the issue. I want the highest quality, best fitting seals I can buy. I dont want to have to modify anything, I want to order them and have them fit and last like they should regardless of cost.
Where do you recommend?
(Ill also need a rear window seal soon)

ISP West sells the German OEM door seals for $150 each. A bit pricey, but worth it if you want them to fit correctly:

I also bought the trunk seals from them for my Notch. They fit well too! |

I'm not thrilled with the rear hatch seal I got from ISP West for my '71 Square. It's much, much thinner than the original, and after adjusting the latch, my rear hatch still rattles sometimes despite being tight enough that I can barely get the latch shut.
Does anybody offer one that's anywhere near as thick as the original? |

OEM on the left, ISP West on the right:
The sad thing is that it would have cost the same to have had the die made 'right' as it did to have it made 'wrong'. |
