Re: recon diff
Talking of wins im after door seals & an estate boot seal & notice they are a lot cheaper than anyone else or are they inferior quality then elsewhere?

Re: recon diff
estate tailgate seal no longer supplied................ not available at all I'm afraid. Re use what you have is the only option!
Door seals, can't say but Chris Witor ones are excellent quality but very hard to fit. Rimmers are softer, easier to fit but not as nicely finished.

Re: recon diff
I bought an estate tailgate seal from Wins a couple of weeks ago. It cost £35 inc. postage. I haven't fitted it yet (stuck in Valencia) but it looks good quality. Also, Chris Witor told me he will be offering tailgate seals within weeks.

Re: recon diff
Really?
They told me NLS, but that was a few months ago! It will be a repro profile so not moulded, but hey.... better than nothing!
I've managed to get hold of a very good used one, but I may just get a wins of CW one in stock just in case!

Re: recon diff
Hi Alan
Yep, really. I saw the seal listed in their ad in the last edition of Six Appeal. They said it was a repro moulding and very close to original although it has to be cut and glued at the corners. They've "supplied lots of 'em and had no complaints". For £35 I'm gonna give it a go - the seal on the car is almost non-existent.
