Default Window rubbers

I don't know the technical term for them, but does anybody know if/where I can get new rubbers to go round my 4x4 Saph windows. The ones that go round the door windows that tend to bubble up from the inside



Thanks

Thanks, I'll pop down there on Saturday on the way back from picking the car up

I just assumed that like most trim bits, they would no longer be available from Ford

I have:-

Weatherstrip AS - 1666979 > Ł27.24
Weatherstrip AS - 1666980 > Ł35.84

Those are the front two, but your parts guy should be able to get the rears easily using those numbers.

The car wasn't ready to pick up, so gave teh Ford garage a miss. I'll try next weekend, but I may have to follow 155lee and do the same thing.

Don't you just hate Ford sometimes. They must know these cars are still popular, but still make so many parts obsolete

im restoring a tidy 2wd just now,getting hold of window rubbers and the side door mouldings was like knitting fog,but i have managed,cosworthshop on ebay are useful for parts.a bit pricey but his stuff and service are worth the extra,and it was him that told me about the window rubber trick!i managed to get new tinted rear lights with the number plate surround,new clear front indicators,sideskirt fitting kit complete,rear door strips,fuel cap seal.hours of trawling ebay paid off!
