Does anyone have any photos of these fitted?

I am pretty sure they are missing from my late 1996 (facelift) Chim.

Are they fitted to all Chims & Griffs or were they only on later cars?

Ah. We are talking different elephant ears, the template I have is for the rubber piece that sits on the rear hoop hinge behind the door.

The parts for sale in the link are actually the rubber caps fitted on the rear of your doors, which can fall off.

Elephants ears are the bits of rubber fitted at the leading edge of the canvas element of the roof to help direct water away from the leading edge of the targa hoop.

Your right them ain't elephant ears on that website pic, Dem is door rubbers still bloody rare though.

As you say 1/8th neoprene rubber sheet is what ele ears are made from, I should know I've made bloody loads over the years for different members. hehe
