Finally got around to fitting the Soffseal roof rail weatherstrips today, must say they fit much better & stay in their groove. Twenty minutes to fit them & then 4 hours playing with glass regulator adjustment  :pullinghair: . I also bought the vertical seals where the door & quarter glass meet, however I have 2 different quarter glass trims  :clueless: one chrome trim goes all the way to the top of the glass & the other has a 1/4" gap at the top where the rubber stop goes. The replacement rubbers will only fit one type.
Anyone know if there are different versions between the model years ?
See pics.

Steve did you manage to take an end profile shot of the seal to compare it at all?

I'll check my rear qtr chrome trim tonight and let you know.

Also on a different note, I have a new gas tank with the 4 vent tubes I'll be selling soon if you or anyone you know maybe needing one, I've had it in the car with gas in it then taken it back out as I've installed an EFI tank

Greg, I cut 2 small end samples with a view to posting pics, will post up tonight. Also did you post on a local facebook page about windscreen availability ? As I recently saw front E body windscreens listed on Pentastar P&R in Sydney.

Yes I did and yes I saw that, emailed them and Elko with no responses, I dont need one, but am putting togeather a container of gear and will put half dozen screens in as a spare for me and sell to friends at normal rates. I think Pentastar showed them for $380 or something, that I could pay worst case, I can walk into any windscreen shop in the US and buy one for US$150 (I did it with 70chall440, a month ago)

See attached comparison photo, profile is very similar.
If you need to fill a container I need 4 door & quarter glasses, happy to pay a premium to get em down here safe'n sound.
