Can anyone help? I am trying to identify the windscreen seal/surround/trim fitted to my AC Ace (Brooklands). Only 50 Aces were made before Company ceased production and parts came from numerous manufacturers parts bins, so tracking down source of spares can be nightmare. The screen is Ford Sierra MK2, but I believe the seal/trim is from a Porsche. As can be seen from pic its a 2-part surround– rubber seal around 3 sides of the screen with finishing trim that snaps into slot in seal.

Ace production was around 1993-94, so seal must be from car in production before 1993. If trim is Porsche item does anyone know which model, or even better the part number?



First pic is of left hand vertical side of screen (pic rotated in posting).



Have more pics if they will help. Thanks

Hi Graham. I'm in discussions with Diane at COH Baines, but have so far drawn a blank. Her only suggestion is to have some specially made, which will be expensive.
