There may be other suppliers you can suggest please.

Many Thanks

I would have to guess that they all come from the same manufacturer

The issue to also consider is the best adhesive to use when installing them. A lot of aftermarket rubber seals have a high silicon content and does not seem to bond with the adhesives recommended. I have tried several on my door seals and the all come unstuck.

I have a full set of seals supplied from MSA (thezstore.com) and they're fantastic. I dont know about any of the others but the door seals dont even need adhesive. They've been on the car for at least a couple years now and ive never had to touch them. I believe they're from a 200sx or possibly early rx7 so they're a modern single piece seal instead of the terrible old 2 piece seals the Z came with. The trunk seal is a little bit on the shit side though. Ive had to glue it back on at least twice since i replaced them and they're currently in need of it again as mentioned by another in this thread, i just cant seem to find a glue that will hold them down permanently. Maybe i need to be more ruthless with my glue selection.

When the seals are made they retain oil from the moulding process it is necessary to degrease them to remove the oil. Even warm them up a bit to help release the lubricants then clean down with prepsol

Thanks heaps for the information. Appreciated.
