nobody

there are no aftermarket makers of the belt line moulding for these cars, the primary door seal or the glass channel. junkyard or if/when you can find it there is a dwindling supply of NOS stuff out there but its drying up fast.

you can get generic stuff from places like JC whitney but quality, fit and finish is not as good as the oem stuff.

the TD community as a whole needs to put out the word as a group that if someone/someones was to put the investment into the tooling to reproduce the rubber seals these cars are now really needing. that they would be guaranteed people to buy them.

I would bet there are enough cars out there that need new seals. Most of these cars spare tire well fill up with water and the floors rot out.

How about wheel lip patch panels, or rocker patch panels? I would think that would be another area that would be covered by someone.

I was just thinking ahead here. I have a line on a '88 Shelby Z that needs some rust repair and I just thought I might get a vender's name for seals.

didnt mean to come across with such a doom and gloom writing. but thats the situation these cars are in. like I've said before here and elsewhere, these cars are in a certain time span, where there too old for chrysler to give a crap about supporting them anymore. but still not even a blip on the radar for the aftermarket companies to tool up and crank out some new seals.

I will say this in regards to some seals. I replaced my damaged rear hatch seal (P-body aka shadow/sundance) with one from a first gen grand cherokee. fits like a glove and seals excellent. also got some "new" door seals from that same jeep for my car. same profile and size as the originals

mines a 4 dr though so you 2dr folks are sol on that one.
