Default 3dr rear quarter mouldings.

Anyone know where I can find 3dr cosworth rear quarter window mouldings. Glass hopefully going back in soon so really need a set ASAP.
Any help very much appreciated. Can't find them anywhere!

I will try East Kent to see what the story is tomorrow. Can I ask what you used as an alternative?
I will keep looking and cross my fingers I find something before the glass is due to go back in.

Unfortunately I have no old ones I can re use. Spoke to East Kent trim this morning. These trim surrounds and clips are indeed going to be remanufactured but the process could take some time.
I'm gonna keep searching but if I find nothing before the car returns from paint I'm gonna replace the glass using the same profile rubber seal used for the rear screen and replace the trim when they become available.

Thanks R4N SS. I've got plenty of this trim which I bought from East Kent Trim.
I'd rather get the real thing though! The more time I spend restoring the car the fussier I'm getting about getting all the details right!

The mouldings are the same as some base models I think. I now have a passenger one so just the drivers side and clips if possible. Any help greatly appreciated.

as far as i could tell the based model i had was the same - just silver metal finish instead of black like the cosworth.

I have heard east kent trim are looking into reproducing these but not sure how long it will be

East Kent are in the process of manufacturing them as I spoke to them last week. Problem is they could yet be months away from being available to buy.

Bit of a long trip for me to collect.

Really, really old pic of a 3 door I once had.

It came with black rear window surrounds that I binned when new glass went in

I now finally have got the mouldings so can crack on with getting it together. Thanks for everyone who helped me find a set!
I've still not got the clips for refitting the mouldings but have read they are not required as everything is bonded in!
Is this true or should I get the clips as well? Has anyone on here fitted these before?
Cheers.

I got one from a guy who had a spare passenger one and the drivers side from Gary at rs cosworth breakers. Gary may have more in stock but it's a bit of a long shot as it took him a while to get my one. Oh and if he does they will be £200 each. A set sold last week on eBay for £120 but the guy would not deliver and they were in Luton.
