Yep, a hint, you have to be into a bare bones restoration to find this one.

The sail panel trim is still on the back burner as the factory are now available. I will continue to evaluate how I can make them, the castings were a bust as the labor to polish made them more expensive than the OEM. I threw a chunk of cash at the process so far and have to get back to where I can try another option. Meanwhile I do the stuff I can easily do to help pay for the R&D.

I haven't forgotten them.

behind the rocker panel covers? The gromets on the drivers side thru which the vent line runs from top of the fuel tank to engine compartment?

Only place I can think of, but I'm not sure of, is around the wiring harness, where it passes from engine bay to trunk, or gas tank area to trunk.

I knew I had messed with that damn thing before, but I couldn't remember where it was! As soon as I saw Java's post, I exclaimed "That's it!!"

So I am going to go out on a limb here and guess that you made these for Bowlsby? Unless these are really stretchy I don't imagine many people would want to attempt to replace one.

Yes these are a few other choice parts were made for Jeff. I covered the tooling on these to be able to make these available to all, the rest of the parts are a Jeff exclusive deal. They are s silicone so yes the are stretchy, but you will need the ends off to use them.
