Scuttle seal foam pads
Any ideas where I can obtain the two foam pads fitted on both ends of the scuttle seal?

Scrapyard is your best bet as they are NLA. A lot of people get a boot seal from a scrapper, cut it to length to go all the way across. Or if you can find a really earlyvcar I'm told the seals did that anyway!

Mine both disintegrated a little while ago, and with new ones being no longer available, I made my own out of a block of modelling foam from Ebay .

Thinking they might be hard to replace i tried a few dabs of superglue and, luckily, it seems ok.

And the earliest cars had tiny little ones and the ends o the seal was cut at an angle. Makes you wonder why.....

Paul's ZT goes all the was across. I thought someone had used a different seal but it's a 2002 so could be original then?
