Default bought parts from carpartsestore.com??

I need the rubber seals that are part of the convertible side front section that seal against the side windows. This place has them for about 1/2 the price through my best dealer.

JAGUAR HJB7779AB SEAL.HOOD FRAME (QTY of 1 Jaguar parts), JAGUAR OEM PARTS


Does anyone have any experience with them? thanks

Steve,

The link produced a price of $116 which is much better than the $140 I found . . . but it references a new part number that is $230 something. Probably need to talk to someone to clarify.

After seeing that $140 figure I took mine off and repaired with a dowel wrapped in wax paper, super glue and RTV. Still in place a year later.

I posted my pics in the other thread. I don't think I have much rubber lip to play with.

Thanks for the heads up on the new price.
