I purchased my rubber seals from www.woolies-trim.co.uk Tel. (01778) 347347.

Top window seal (later type) is their reference SRS24.

Very helpful company. Will supply samples.

Apparently the ones on BB's website are for later cars and the metal channel screws into the roof panel whereas the ones for earlier cars don't have the metal channel and glue on to the roof panel.
Has anyone had experience of the two different seals, how they compare effectively and has anyone screwed the newer seal to earlier cars?

Ta,

I guess you have the older type seal. Just had mine delivered for a 99 Griff and its to small (its def not the one shown on BB's site), it has the correct profile its just that the T shape is smaller than the channel it fits into on the roof.

Ah well! I am trying the Woolies one now
