Help with door & window seals

What are you guys doing about worn out door and window seals? Are replacement kits even available?

Unfortunately most of the rubber kits are out of Australia (from what I know). You can order them at: scottsoldautorubber.com.au or https://rp-secure.com/shop/default.asp

I used the FC door rubbers and window felt/rails from the 80's 626. Both requires trimming. The first gen stuff for window rails are too wide.

I used the plastic "T" shape push-in pins from the FB/FC (i dont know what they're called). Since the FC door rubber are longer, I trimmed/shortened it and placed the cut section in the bottom of the door so no one can see it; this is the only area where I used a double sided tape (in addition to the push-in pins) to secure it.
