Does anyone know where I can find a set of NOS window rubber seals? I am finding the new seals from WW and WCM are too large in profile and don't sit well.
If anyone has a set of NOS seals please let me know. Thank you

in my opinion, thats actually one thing you don't want NOS. That and brake parts with rubber. It breaks down over time

Agreed - you don't want NOS. After having the same problems as you with WW seals, I found these and they worked great:

No kit, you have to buy each seal individually. The difference between WW and these was night and day.

Just received a front and rear set of seals from CIP1. Question, when installing the seals on the glass does the seam where the rubbers are glued together go at the center bottom or center top of both front windshiel and Oval rear glass?
Thanks Louie
