G/box rubber draught gaiter

I guess these will be a bit rare on the ground. What were they off originally ? Mines looking a bit worse for wear so I could do with replacing it...had a look on clever Trev site but it's not available.

Done mine recently.
D&C Trim should have them in all existing original color combinations, leather or vinyl.

I think this concerning the lower rubber gaiter that sits above the gearbox, directly below the upper leather gaiter.

Mine is also looking a little worse for wear after changing my reverse switch - I too would like a new one, and would but one if I knew where to look...

Been lots of Transits, does this one look anything like?

How do you know you need a new one but I suspect you've seen it without realising it! Its under the centre console.... If its is the mk 5 etc I'll get a price and post it.

Oh and Thanks Andy

I have definitely seen it - needed to remove it to get to the reverse switch (one of the few jobs I managed to do without effing it up...). It was caked in sikaflex and didn't come off without a fight. I used sikaflex to glue it back in place, but some of the edges are slightly ripped.

ETA - this looks a bit more like it, but not sure if it's the same as the Transit version:

And this is the residual gunk I had to remove before re-sealing the gaiter:
