Is there a replacement for the Fender to Cowl seals?

I ordered some from Tweeks a while back... part number 400-164.

They were like 99 cents per side.

Not bad. I've ordered a bunch of sets over the years. The set I put into the Bumblebee haven't shrunk noticably. The set I put into the /6 does seem to have shrunk... perhaps an 8th of an inch in lenght, but the lateral fit is still snug.

Mine arrived long and required some trimming.

I had planned on getting them from Tweeks (Mid America) as they were a little less expensive, but they have stopped selling Porsche parts so that wasn't possible.

Anyways, I got some from Nate @ 9motorsport and they fit really well. I only put them in a few weeks ago, so I can't comment on shrinkage, but they do fit very tight laterally.

How do you install these? Do you pre-lube them and just push them in? They are a friction fit right?

The install is easy . just clean out the slott were the new one will go . push um in . done . Hey andy . There are two replacement types . there are the real kind hard plastic and long lasting . there are aftermarket ones that are very sorf rubber and do not stay in place like the real ones . LOOK 4 the real ones . Rick aktion035.gif

soft rubber . <------ . still lerning to spell . both types need to be cut to size . the real ones are very close but hang over just a bitt , if u just put them in . Mesure twice cut one time . Yeh they will shrink a small bit . but we will have to wait 20 to 30 years to see real shrinky dinks .
