I'm confused as to this seal. You say four per car. I get the one on targa bar, the vertical one. Is the other one the top seal that mounts to the targa top?

There are actually 2 on the body and 2 on the targa top. I was looking at reproducing the side ones on the body. The other 2 on the targa top are slightly different. I'll check on these tomorrow to see if the same die would work for both, but from my recollection they were different.

There may be some confusion on the window sweeps. I'm still waiting on the materials, and I have some test fitting I need to do on these. Probably 1st of the year.

Does it take two targa sets to seal the car? If so, then I will take two otherwise, one. My other option is to keep as much water IN as I can so I won't see new leaks coming in.

There is a left and right, that meet the ones on the targa top. The ones at the top will keep the water from coming int the cabin when the window is rolled all the way up.
I'm still working on these, will cut the die when I get recovered from my Christmas spending. This is a slow time of year for railing.

I will take a set if you have one left. As a matter of fact I will pretty much buy any seals you mkae - good stuff!

Let me know when to send you some money.

Thanks!

Thanks guys. The die is still in production. This is a very complicated shape with the extra little lip. I should have the first article in about 18 days, and product will follow shortly. I'll post pictures when I get the first article.
Thanks to all

UPDATE-
Did a short run on the new die and tried fit. I will need to tweek the die a little more. The compression of the small fin was not quite correct. I need to cut the angle down about 15 degrees and relieve some of the inside of the internal cavity to make it more pliable.

Sorry to keep you waiting but estimate is about 14 days for re-tooling.

This is the most complex die I've done to date, and I want to have it dialed in 100%.

I could probably extrude the die I have but it pushed on the window too hard at the top that it was about 1/8" out . A minor detail, but not acceptable in my opinion.

I'll keep everyone posted.

Thanks for your patience
