You can buy universal sweep material and cut to length. Remove all traces of the original rubber lip and graft the new piece onto the original stick with small pop rivets, urethane ect.

1994 Shadow Sedan. 2.2 N/A, A568 400,000 miles. "the science experiment"
1987 Shelby CSX #418. Long term rebuild and restore ?
is the shadow exactly 3/8" to the window?
im looking for stuff for my reliant and it looks like the reliant is like a 1/16" or 3/32" more than 3/8"
also, is it really 42.20 for 2 pieces? it says 42.20/pr.... like as in a pair?
thanks

Installing my Window outside scrapers. Does anyone know the dimensions or part number for the inside scraper attached to the door panel?

This is what I used for P body sweeps. I had to buy in bulk from them, you may be able to find a reseller that has it.

Damn, that's bad, It was easier finding a set for my 1986 K-car convertible which included all four windows.
Thanks Everyone,
Just to clarify, I am installing a kit I bought from Andy a fe years back which is on the outside, everything is fine here.
The door panel that you remove on the inside also has a rubber scraper. I am looking for a replacement for this rubber.
If necessary, I will try to remove the rubber scraper from a few spare panels I have in storage.

Miles, you could try these people:
They had the ones for the 1983-86 (they said 1983-87) K body convertibles both inner and outer for both doors and the quarter windows.
Good price on Sweeps. I just received 2 sets of 2 from RA. $27 for a set of 2 plus shipping.
You will also need 1/8" countersunk pop rivets at 3/8" long.

Thanks. I just ordered up a set. This is for the outside, right?
