Does anyone know what the door seals are off, it seems that the usual suspects don't have any and mine are looking a little second hand now?

Cheers.

They can be totally rejuvenated by spraying with liberal amounts of silicone lube. Leave for 5 - 10 mins then wipe off with a rag. Repeat 3 or 4 times - they'll come up like new.

Well worth just replacing them, I just bought from TVR parts... a bit of water and fairy liquid helps to get them on and as a bonus my doors now spring open and shut with a much more reassuring thud.

Thank you every one.

I have ordered some.

I normally change then every couple of years as they start to leak and as the car is in the trimmers for a complete interior refit I should put new seals on to stop the new carpet getting wet.
