Default Door outer window seals.

I need a set but can't seem to find them. Are the convertibles the same as the coupes.

Hi 540,
Corvette Central is a manufacturer and source for 70-72+ outer door glass seals.
The convertible seals are a bit shorter than the coupe seals because of the shape of the side window's rear edge.
It's good to have the correct seals for the body style.
Regards,
Alan

This is the coupe seal (71).

Hi,
I think many vendors are distributing the CC seals.
Paragon Reproductions, ZIP Products, Keen, Smart Parts, Willcox?
Regards,
Alan

Got mine from Zip, if you do be sure to order the reproduction and not the imported ones. They cost more but are worth it, the fit is better but still had to massage them into place.

Most of the sellers that I've found have them call them felts. If you search felt on any of the big vendors you should find them.
