Hi -- I have the wrong seals on the doors of my 73 412 Wagon. I was hoping someone had a piece of a correct one that I can use to source.

Of course I'd pay all shipping expenses, I just need about 6" worth of an old seal. Please let me know if you can help me out.

It will take more than one sample. There are at leastctwo profiles on each door as memory goes. I replaced mine with aftermarket long ago so I have no samples......but its a flat profile up in the hinge area....a v shaped flap across the up. Cant remember the bottom. Ray

Any other feedback/suggestions as to what door seals would be more aligned with a 73 Variant? Perhaps a T3 ?

Just checking in to see if I can get any further guidance on where to find/get the proper front door seal profile for a 73 Variant. Since I'm most likely several hundred miles from any remnant of a T4, I was hoping someone can give me some guidance. Thanks in advance. Ron

I dont have proper factory seals....but mine seal perfectly. They are Auveco seals. I used two different profiles. They are similar to stock but you need to do some careful installing. They are better material than stock. Softer and more conformal when compressed.

I have never seen stock replacement seals. Ray

Do you have PN's for the Auveco seals?
