Alan,
I hadn't seen a reply to your post. I'm not sure who's car it is, but the
weather stripping looks like that sold by Terry and Bob. There are 2
weather strip, one that is glued to the door, and the other that clips
to the birdcage.
They aren't cheap, I think something like $200 for all 4 pieces.
If you have the Jan 2004 issue, look at the centerfold, you'll see
both of them, the one on the door, near the flange that the skin is
glued to and the one of the birdcage.
Also in the Jan 2004 issue, there's a picture of John Lodge gluing
the one seal to the door (p 20). Notice the "kickout strip" on page 21.
Hope this helps.
John
