|

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. _________________ 1973 412 Wagon

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 ? _________________ 1973 412 Wagon

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 _________________ 1973 412 Wagon

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? _________________ 1973 412 Wagon
