I got the info from piston heads thread here: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/t...+Ford+focus%3F

All Seals direct www.sealsplusdirect.co.uk 08452263345

6m for the door seals on the Tam This fitted but would need trimming to get trim piece back on.
2m for the hoop seal on the roof
I didn't know where this one fitted. It didn't seem to fit in anywhere.

ETS58 for the door/hoop seal at 5.88€/meter inc vat
SRS1905 for the roof/window edge seal on the Tam at 4.66€/meter

Postage is about 6.28€

Shep
One of the seals fitted ETS58 for the door/hoop seal but I had to trim it. The other seals would be better got from ford as they have the ecat to look up part numbers.

A pillar ones? Expect about £200 for both NOS items. You may be lucky to bag the pair for £150ish. You can't buy them from Ford anymore so anyone in the know demands silly money for them, And they'll get it too!
